Arielle Baker

Account Executive 
| she/her

Arielle is a fundraising leader passionate about connecting good people to organizations making an impact. With more than a decade of experience partnering with nonprofit leaders to build healthier, more sustainable programs, she brings expertise in direct mail and digital fundraising to K2D Strategies—helping organizations create meaningful relationships with their donors and drive real results.

Throughout her career, Arielle has worked across environmental advocacy, health and human services, homelessness, and women’s empowerment. She excels at designing scalable strategies that span individual giving, major gifts, peer-to-peer fundraising, and volunteer engagement. With a data-driven approach and an eye for what works, she strengthens the systems that matter—gift processing, donor stewardship, CRM management—so organizations can focus on their mission and grow with confidence.

While Arielle is no mermaid, she is happiest around water. Growing up in Grand Rapids, MI, she spent countless hours at Lake Michigan, and today you’ll often find her along the James River in Richmond, VA (where she currently lives). When she’s not at K2D or seeking out a beach, she’s binging TV shows with her cat, planning trips near or far, or racing to finish her book before book club.
