She is also the creator of the signature program Strategically Planned 365™ - a nonprofit business framework designed to help nonprofit leaders gain clarity, plan for capacity, manage, implement, and collaborate effectively. She is also the creator of Telling Profitable Stories™ - a revenue-generating communications system geared towards helping for-profits and nonprofits tell the stories that pull at the hearts strings of their audience and compel them to open their purse strings.
Tracy received her BA from Excelsior College. She has also been an Educator for 20 years with most of her focus being in the area of Middle School English Language Arts.
When Tracy isn't strategizing for clients, she is doing volunteer work for SCORE Greater Hartford Chapter as a Co-Chair, Education, and Inclusion & Diversity Coordinator, Fundraising Team Member, as well as the organization's representative on the Small Nonprofit Community Partners Committee. She also sits on the board of the Charter Oak State College Foundation.
Tracy also hosts three podcast shows. She has bi-weekly podcast/vodcast called Nonprofit Biz Talk™, a daily 60-second strategy-packed show, The Nonprofit Minute™, and her newest addition Unskriptd™ with Tracy V. Allen.
Tracy is also a mom of two and enjoys spending quality time with them cooking, traveling, and having riveting discussions about societal issues.
