About

Some things to know about Rachel are that she loves science, history, and Doctor Who. When she’s not thinking about how to make nonprofit data more actionable (and beautiful!), she’s happily trying to catch up with her fellow Freshies’ gardening skills. She’s lost most of her Texan accent, but get her a drink and/or in a room with her siblings, and the “y’all’s” will start flying. In all of this and more, she is sustained by her fella Carl, his amazing cooking, and their two fearless and opinionated kiddos.

For nearly 20 years, she’s had the privilege of working with the country’s leading nonprofits to grow their constituencies, develop groundbreaking strategy and campaigns and raise millions for the causes she cares about. She especially loves building strong digital direct response programs and practices that dramatically improve how nonprofits build loyalty with their constituents. 

A few things you need to know about Jenn are that she loves food (eating, cooking and growing it), she has a ridiculously loud laugh, she always fights for the underdog, and she’s very competitive (especially when playing games like Battleship). When she’s not raising money for her clients, she is keeping her eyes on the little amazing things that make up this time on our planet with her daughter Parker and wife, Elsie.

With a graphic design and fine art background, she has found her niche at the intersection of design, technology, and social good. On any given day you’ll find her coming up with inventive visual direction, designing one-of-a-kind creative assets for client campaigns, or digging into client systems and tools to build emails, landing pages, automations and more. She has worked with organizations focused on Latina leadership development, social services, social justice and human rights, education, philanthropy, the environment, and animal welfare. Most recently, she worked with YouthTruth, GLIDE, and the Peninsula Humane Society & SPCA.

In her free time, you can find her binging old TV shows on Netflix, dabbling in illustration and animation, volunteering in her community, and trying to keep her plant collection alive. Thelma lives in Oakland, CA, with her partner Brandon and their two cats, Unagi and Bento.

Prior to joining the team at Fresh Eyes Digital, she has worked with President Obama’s 2012 re-election campaign, Pennsylvania Lieutenant Governor John Fetterman, the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance, the Sunrise Movement, the Working Families Party, the Committee to Protect Health Care, Demand Progress, and many more.

Sara lives in Ypsilanti, Michigan (near Ann Arbor and Detroit) with her husband Aaron and dachshund Ziggy. When not drafting your next great fundraising email, you can probably find her cooking, traveling, on a Lake Michigan beach, listening to music, watching a trashy reality television show, or learning how to play the bass.

She has also spent over seven years combining creativity and strategy to help entrepreneurs, small businesses, and grassroots organizations define and shape their brand through brand identity and web design consulting.

Jazmine lives in Frederick, Maryland, with her husband and son. You’ll find her working on one of many unfinished painting projects, trying new recipes, or contemplating starting a hydroponic garden in her spare time.

Throughout her career, she has crafted digital, social, and print content to engage, inspire and persuade audiences to take action on progressive political and social issues. Her work has been featured in The New York Times, Reuters, USA Today, Ms., Univision, Cosmopolitan, the Advocate, and more.

Bettina spent five years working as a writing teacher’s assistant and writing center consultant while completing two master’s degrees prior to her career in marketing.

A native Texan, Bettina lives in Washington, D.C. with her partner LG and cat Henry. In her free time, you can find her strolling along the Anacostia River and through D.C.’s many parks and greenways, hanging at Eastern Market, and taking pictures of every flower she sees.

In her nonprofit world, she spent 7 years as the Director of Operations for the Vail Film Festival, managing a staff and hundreds of volunteers all over the country. As the Communications Director for Chicago’s Green City Market, Erin not only managed and scheduled hundreds of volunteers weekly, she actively fundraised for the organization. After spending some time in the business world as a Director of Administration for Virtue Cider in Chicago and Director of Operations for Salty Tart Bakery in Minneapolis and St. Paul, Erin understands the key to success is well-developed systems and structure. Erin specializes in creating these systems to support our staff and our clients in order to allow them to spend their time on the important work of fundraising and community action. Erin, her husband Dave, and their 2 amazing kids, Magnus and Fiona, live in St. Paul, MN.

Prior to joining Fresh Eyes Digital, Ilana worked in-house at organizations specializing in reproductive justice and fighting sexual violence, where they first discovered their love for the combination of technology and fundraising.

In their spare time, Ilana enjoys practicing and arranging music, doing puzzles, and hanging out with their two adorable cats.
