Teisha is an outstanding person and fundraising professional. We have worked as colleagues for over a decade and more recently she has saved the day for us providing excellent consulting advice, including the development of a new strategy. Teisha is always the first person I think of when I need advice - she is by a long stretch the best fundraising professional that I have worked with.
