What Drives Mig

“It’s exciting when a client brings me a problem they are having in their organization, and I am able to brainstorm with them to arrive at next steps, or even better, an ultimate solution.”

“Working with nonprofits is a great privilege. They are the backbone of our society; nonprofits do the work that really can’t be done effectively by government agencies or commercial businesses, motivated purely by altruism.  I don’t have the talents our clients do – designing programs, developing funder relationships, etc. – but it is rewarding to relieve them of many of the administrative burdens of financial management.”
