Work With Me
My Background and Ways of Working
As a long-time senior-level consultant to organizations in multiple countries, I know the challenges that come with mission-driven / purpose-led work. I’ve worked as a founder, manager, leader, board member and volunteer for other organizations. I understand the effort and resources required to start, to grow, and to sustain causes and movements.
I am passionate, intense, energetic, and optimistic about the possibilities for change that exist in the world. I also care deeply about helping good organizations to thrive, and not merely survive. And I challenge assumptions while embracing risk and uncertainty with confidence.
What I can help with
My primary expertise centers on strategy, capacity building, fundraising/development, and content communications for social change. I can you individually, your team, or your organization in the following ways:
Strategy Development – when you need to clarify vision, adapt to new conditions, or get people on the same page
Capacity Building – when your systems, staff, or structure need attention to stay aligned with your mission and momentum
Fundraising & Development Support – when you need guidance, thought partnership, or a reality check on what’s feasible and fundable
Program or Initiative Design – when you’re shaping something new, adapting something existing, or rethinking how your work connects to actual outcomes
Content Communications for Social Change – when you want your message, narrative, or case for support to reflect who you really are and what you actually do
I bring experience, clarity, challenge, and care—so that your team can move forward with more focus, less noise, and fewer false starts. And I take the time to learn what each organization actually wants and needs.
I do not push one-size-fits-all solutions. I have no magic formulas or pre-packaged methodologies to promote. I do not believe in quick fixes. Good work requires time, energy, thought, substance, and planning to succeed. I think you’re worth the effort, and I hope you do to.
Not sure where to begin? Let’s Talk
Maybe you’re stuck in planning mode. Maybe your team is at a crossroads. Maybe you're navigating a tricky transition, or trying to meet rising demands with limited capacity. Maybe you just need a trusted outside voice to help you regroup, refocus, and reframe what’s possible.
Many of my clients start with a general sense that something needs to change, but aren’t sure what kind of support will actually help. Others have a clear goal, but limited time or capacity to get there on their own. There is no right way or one way to start. What matters is knowing where you are starting from.
You’re doing the work—on the ground, across borders, under pressure. Whether you're leading a nonprofit, scaling a social enterprise, or strengthening a foundation’s impact, the mission is clear—but the path forward often isn’t.
So if you're navigating complexity or transition and think my approach could be a fit, let’s talk. I’ll review what you share, and if it makes sense, we can set up a chat/call to talk more.
Please know that everything you share with me will be held in confidence and not shared with others. Respecting your boundaries and trust are an important part of this process. Thank you very much for your time and consideration.
