She started at 19, mentored by Clint Bell, and has since conducted numerous events. Anna emphasizes the importance of adaptability, humor, and building relationships with event planners and AV teams. She shares her experiences, including a memorable event where a major donor's fall disrupted the live auction, yet she still managed to book more events. Anna also highlights the support from women in the nonprofit industry, particularly her mentor Courtney Bell. She advises aspiring auctioneers to attend events, find a mentor, and consider auction schools.
