As a Social Impact Advisor, I work with clients as an interim executive, consultant, facilitator, and coach.
My style comes from being raised by educators, living and working in diverse communities, serving in volunteer corps, working in various nonprofit departments, earning a M.S. in Public Service Management, and supporting hundreds of leaders in a variety of organizations. This includes museums, schools, corporate charities, churches, associations, federations, start-up social enterprises, foundations, social service agencies, technology solutions' firms, among others. I am passionate about supporting people and systems for positive social impact.
From 2001 to 2009, I worked with a national consulting firm providing full-suite services to nonprofits and foundations, as well as CSR and employee engagement teams. Since then, I work independently (and in affiliated teams) and offer strategy, evaluation, giving/grants, change management, and team development services. Some of my go-to collaborators include Kristen Roberts, Nadine Long, Aaron Chavis, and Ashley Storman.
Committed to my own professional development, I regularly capture client feedback and practice the reflective activities I encourage my clients to try. A passionate learner and entrepreneur, I pay attention to the ever-evolving nonprofit and business sectors, adapt, and integrate new tools and approaches.
My favorite projects are those where clients bravely face challenges and explore promising potentials for personal, team-based, and organizational transformation.
