What is your "Go-To" when you need help strengthening yourself?

Go-to Scripture:

The Lord God has told us what is right and what he demands: “See that justice is done, let mercy be your first concern, and humbly obey your God.” Micah 6:8

My go-to strength soundtracks when I need a little strength boost:

I'm Still Standing (Elton John)

Rescue (Lauren Daigle)

Who Run The World (Girls) (Beyonce)

How has being a part of the Graf-Martin team strengthened you?

This has been a tough season in my personal life and Ellen [Graf-Martin], Dan [Wilcox], and team have reminded me that we do our best work when we lead out of our humanity and lean into love and compassion. They have strengthened me with their sharp skills, encouragement, and genuine kindness.

How have you been able to strengthen our clients?

I lead from the heart and genuinely care about our clients'' success. My empathetic perspective and passion for research allow me to quickly understand clients' needs and to equip them with meaningful big picture solutions, like overarching brand strategy and integrated communications and campaigns planning.

How is Graf-Martin building a stronger non-profit sector?

GM is driving collaboration to create more effectiveness and efficiency in the non-profit sector. They prioritize community and connection, rather than competition. They uphold their clients best interests, even if it's at the expense of "good business."

Heather is in her sweet spot working with teams like Graf-Martin, where she can marry her greatest passion - helping others (especially vulnerable populations) - with her professional skill set - bringing brands to life with strategic storytelling.

On a personal note: Heather loves to run, get outside and enjoy all of the natural wonders the world has to offer, read, and spend quality time connecting with those she loves most.

Heather, we are glad you are a part of our team!!
