How I Can Help

I guide organizations, partners, and leaders through strategic planning processes to clarify vision, and develop real strategies to meet goals.

I provide expert leadership for complex capital initiatives, overseeing every phase from early exploration and feasibility to securing multi-million dollar investments and cultivating partners.

This includes identifying, acquiring, and permanently protecting vital community resources to ensure long-term affordability and community control.

I design and implement smart, sustainable fundraising strategies, including major donor cultivation, grant writing, and multi-million-dollar campaigns.

My approach is informed by a unique perspective as both a grantmaker and grantee, fostering trust-based relationships and leveraging philanthropic investment to achieve equitable and values-driven outcomes.

I design inclusive, grassroots engagement processes that empower diverse voices and perspectives within communities to create shared vision.

I specialize in building community-led coalitions and forging public-private partnerships that align around shared purpose.

I provide experienced, calm, and steady guidance to mission-driven organizations navigating periods of significant growth, complex transitions, or unexpected challenges.

This includes supporting executive leadership and teams in maintaining focus, strengthening internal capacities, and ensuring continued alignment with organizational ethos, core mission, and community goals during critical junctures.
