Founding Partners
Robin Rooks McQueen
“Teamwork makes the dream work." Fitting words for Robin - master progressive nonprofit strategist and fundraiser, a lover of wine, food and all things design. She is consistently calm, cool, and collected - critical leadership strengths in this day and age. In addition to fundraising on staff for nonprofits since 1998, she has held leadership level positions at established progressive organizations since 2004. Robin is an amateur designer, obsessive organizer, and fashion lover. Of all her many accomplishments, including an architecture degree from University of Virginia, she’s most proud of her children and all-woman owned business.
Adrienne Shaw
When it comes right down to it, Adrienne "Stays Frosty". That's because she has chops - story crafting & telling, editing, finance, history, and tech chops to be precise. She gleaned these skills from fundraising in-house for civic engagement and environmental nonprofits since 2005. Prior, she earned her masters degree in American History, with a focus on Women's and Gender Studies after an English BA from Mason. Washington, D.C. is home but Adrienne has visited 23 countries and 38 U.S. states. Authentic, direct, and brave - Adrienne loves SCUBA and spending time with her family at the beach, and is an intersectional feminist film and pop culture buff.
