I approach nonprofit consulting as a partnership grounded in trust, equity, and shared impact. Nonprofit leaders face complex challenges — from funding uncertainty and regulatory shifts to mission fidelity and community accountability — and they need expert support that centers their values rather than imposes external metrics. My consulting practice combines deep critical theory insights with hands‐on experience in Strategic Planning, Evaluation, Organizational Culture and Dynamics, and Grant Writing and Administration to help nonprofits amplify their impact and sustain their mission over the long term.
By centering trust, we build capacity together — from board governance and fundraising strategies to communication audits and impact reporting — ensuring every recommendation emerges from your organization’s vision and community expertise.
Core Services
Strategic Planning
Nonprofits often struggle to align evolving community needs with long-term strategy. I facilitate participatory strategic planning retreats that integrate SWOT‐equity analyses and power-flow mapping, co-authoring a living Theory of Change.
Grant Writing and Administration
I help you craft compelling funding proposals, annual impact reports, and multi-channel campaigns that articulate your unique value proposition. We co-design funding journeys — using storytelling and data transparency — to diversify revenue streams and build relationships with foundations, state and federal funders, and corporate partners.
Organizational Culture and Dynamics
Healthy cultures underpin sustainable impact. Through organizational diagnostics, I assess leadership dynamics, decision-making protocols, and communication patterns. We then co-create governance frameworks—rotating facilitation, inclusive board recruitment, restorative conflict protocols—that redistribute power and foster collective stewardship.
Evaluation
My evaluation practice emphasizes action-oriented, participatory methods. I integrate “most significant change” storytelling, thematic coding, and quantitative surveys to surface both intended and emergent outcomes. Findings feed real-time learning sprints, enabling adaptive management and demonstrating impact to stakeholders.
Executive & Leadership Coaching
Beyond project deliverables, I offer ongoing coaching for executive directors, program managers, and boards. Topics include adaptive leadership, trauma-informed management, and critical media strategies. This sustained support—through monthly learning circles and peer-network facilitation—builds internal capacity for continuous improvement.
