About Kimberly

I am Kimberly Pirtle, an auctioneer, speaker, and fundraising strategist committed to creating powerful moments that inspire action and unlock generosity. Trained at Sotheby’s and known for my presence on the podium, I have helped raise millions for leading cultural institutions, nonprofits, and community organizations across the country.

My work lives at the intersection of performance, purpose, and strategic insight. Whether I am driving bids at a gala, speaking to a room of leaders, or guiding donors through a moment of giving, I bring clarity, warmth, and intention to every stage I step onto. I believe that generosity grows when people feel connected, and I strive to craft experiences that elevate the room and deliver meaningful results.

At the heart of my work is a simple mission: to guide the room, ignite the moment, and help every event reach its greatest potential.
