I provide expertise and capacity to nonprofits in the areas of fundraising, strategic planning, governance, and organizational development. I also develop bylaws, policies, and build organizational infrastructure. Together with my clients, we create a roadmap to achieve their unique organizational vision. With over 25 years' experience building, leading and counseling nonprofits (incl. leading a $25 million government agency and serving as a nonprofit lawyer), I bring deep knowledge, a broad range of skills, and well-developed network to our work. I specialize in turnaround, transition and growth opportunities and maintain a small portfolio so each client receives my personal support and focus. My work style is smart, efficient, collaborative, and high-value.
