Bio
Nicole Holt has worked at Preble Street since 2010 and has more than twenty years of experience with Raiser’s Edge. She specializes in designing scalable fundraising infrastructure within Raiser’s Edge NXT, aligning data governance, automation, and reporting strategy to strengthen operational efficiency and revenue visibility.
After completing the inaugural Blackbaud–Microsoft Power Platform Accelerator, Nicole began integrating Raiser’s Edge NXT with Power Automate and SharePoint to reduce manual processes and improve reporting reliability across teams.
