I believe the best fundraising auctioneers are former sales professionals. We aren’t afraid to ask for the money and we aren’t afraid of big numbers.

I spent seven years as a Sales & Marketing consultant for Onboard Media, a luxury goods and international brands division of LVMH. This helped me hone my abilities as a live presenter, which landed me a position as a TV Host for The Shopping Channel (TSC). As a Show Host, I was getting several requests for live emcee gigs for fundraising galas. After attending many of these events, I felt I could not only learn to be a fundraising auctioneer but raise more money than the charity auctioneers I was seeing on stage. I enlisted the help of one of the most successful benefit auctioneers in the southeast of the United States and the rest is history!
