Why Helia LOVES Kate

As soon as Kate framed her work in mergers + acquisitions as about EXPANDING POSSIBILITIES and making the non-profit sector BIGGER, we knew she was a human we needed + wanted in the world. From her Merger Monday highlights (because hearing the human stories is maybe the MOST important thing to her) to being willing to roll up her sleeves to figuring out all the details, Kate helps make things happen, with new perspectives and fun analogies!

Kate finds joy + ease in

Everything salty. The ocean, margaritas, a salt scrub — even a salty attitude. The saltiest people in my life are often the truth tellers and I love spending time in the company of people who are keeping it real. Even the sweet things in life are better with a little dash of salt.
