Thankful for Alanna

In this five-part series, I wanted to give you a brief introduction to each of the people who make Analytical Ones great: Its employees. I so appreciate their hard work and dedication to all our clients. Quite simply, without them there would be no Analytical Ones.

Alanna Shores, Senior Consultant – Director of Analytics

People love working with Alanna. Not only is she super smart and insightful in fundraising analytics, but she has a joyful spirit that is simply contagious.

Alanna has worked as a fundraising analyst since 2013 serving faith-based organizations. Her degree in psychology helps her understand donor behavior. Her gifts in math and coding make her a natural analyst.
