“I had the pleasure of working with Martina for two and a half years as peers at Points of Light. Martina is a gifted fundraiser and thought leader in the nonprofit sector. I watched her routinely turn soft leads with prospective corporate donors into strong, mutually beneficial partnerships that continued to grow year over year under her leadership. She is a consummate professional, who represents herself and her organization exceptionally well in all settings. Her talents as a connector and thought partner in creating vibrate programs are a natural part of who she is; it never comes off forced or self-serving to the funding partner. To me the best part about working with Martina was that you knew she ALWAYS was on her game; but that she also had a great sense of humor and could (and would) take the time to enjoy a laugh or recognize a crazy situation before we quickly got to work solving for it. Any organization would be tremendously lucky to have Martina on their team. I would consider it a privilege to serve as her colleague again in the future! ”
