Making Important Work Happen
Most non-profit leaders find themselves maxed out and tapped out preventing growth. As a non-profit consultant, I partner with staff and volunteers to ease the burden of running a non-profit.
As a result, there is less unnecessary talk / talking in circles / less stress on the collective board, and more ease, efficiency, organization, and aligned + intentional action leading to greater excellence and community impact.
Together we turn ideas into impact using an evidence-based, scientific approach and systems-minded solutions.
Promises to my clients:
Effectively combine vision and implementation. I’ve built a reputation for being visionary and thinking about the big picture, while also making things happen day-to-day. Clients have come to me and asked that I help them more effectively combine vision and implementation.
Scientific approach. With a PhD in Soil Science, I approach projects with a unique angle combining a background of science and creativity with systems in mind.
Areas of Practice
Strategic Planning & Consulting
Is your organization facing pain points and you could use some feedback on how to move forward? Whether you need to talk things over to get past an immediate need or develop a long-term strategy, I can help leaders move forward. Previously, I have worked with clients to develop hiring strategies, work through conflict to find consensus, and plan for financial growth.
Government Affairs & Policy resources
Are you looking for a way to provide better services for your members and interested in exploring advocacy and government affairs? Do you need to evaluate different options to solve problems through policy? I work with nonprofits to help provide government affairs services, develop policy platforms and advocacy strategies, and conduct policy research and analyses.
Executive & Association Management
Associations have long relied on consultants to assist with basic administrative tasks, but nonprofit leaders rarely know that this is an option for their organization. If your volunteers are at capacity but you don't yet have the ability to bring on paid staff, consider working with me to cover your executive management and administrative needs.
Research, Reports, & Assessments
Do you have a big question to answer for your business but not enough time to research and write a report? Are you looking to create standard operating procedures, handbooks, or best management practice guides? I’m here to help. Similar to strategic planning, I take a methodical approach to creating evidence-based guidance for small businesses and nonprofits.
