Meet Amanda Faye Lipsey, an award-winning fund development consultant specializing in small business research innovation grants and medical/biotech fundraising. With over 16 years experience, Amanda is the perfect choice for your fundraising needs. #UpworkSpotlight

“I became permanently disabled in 2014, and after an attempt to return to the workforce, I realized I could still do a lot of good and help a lot of people if I could manage my own workload and schedule. I love bei...ng able to contribute to people changing the world in so many different ways through so many innovative solutions. My clients are brilliant and inspiring people.”

“I love the diversity in clients on Upwork. I've worked with medical researchers, jazz musicians, nonprofits helping families with special needs, and scientists from diverse fields, all trying to make the world a better place.”

The project that stood out the most for Amanda: “I worked with a medical researcher on a $1.2 million grant award that was due in 10 days from project start. She was a wonderful collaborator, and we won the grant!”

How does Amanda ensure her clients have a great experience? “Communication, transparency, integrity, and accountability are my keys to client success.”

“[Keep in mind that] high quality work costs more, but it costs a lot less than paying twice. A consultant can bring a lot to your organization, and while the expense may seem higher for high quality, remember the ROI on high quality is much greater. In my case, it can be the difference between $1.2 million and $0.”
