Elah Seidel
Manager
Elah Seidel (she/her), a Manager at Advance NYC since 2017, currently leads multiple client partnerships across a diverse range of sectors, including civil rights, performing arts, and social services. She offers tailored expertise in full-scale event management and production, board development, strategic and capital campaign planning, and holistic individual giving and major gift strategy. Over her several years with the company, she continues to find inspiration from her partnerships with over 50 nonprofit clients across the tri-state area, and beyond, and feels deeply passionate about supporting the work of organizations making a difference in our communities and the nation at large.
Elah’s leadership has been instrumental in numerous multi-million dollar fundraising events, but she continues to bring the same care to her work whether fundraising in a room full of eight-hundred or eight. Before her time at Advance NYC, Elah worked at Signature Theatre and has a background in the performing arts and a degree in Theatre, Arts Administration, and Latin American Studies from the University of Oregon.
Elah loves to bake up a storm in her Brooklyn kitchen, spend time in nature, or do absolutely nothing else besides sit and stare at her tortie cat, Stella Blue, who occasionally steals the spotlight during video calls.
