Before joining the Coalition, Judi was using her BFA in Graphic Design from the Savannah College of Art & Design to help small neighborhood nonprofit organizations with their visual and technology challenges.

The work became a personal passion when her father died of colon cancer, and she accepted a full-time position to help start the organization in 2005.

Under Judi’s leadership, while keeping the organization’s operating budget low, she manages and supports a wide variety of cloud-based tools that help the organization better communicate and operate.

Judi enthusiastically shares her honest, real-world experience working with these emerging platforms with the broader nonprofit technology community through social media, as co-moderator of the Nonprofit Salesforce online listserv, and as a presenter at conferences. Judi serves on the Board of Directors of the Nonprofit Technology Enterprise Network (NTEN).
