How I Work:
With over a decade of experience in:
arts integration
cultural competency
trauma-informed practice
participatory research
creative problem-solving
I reveal ideas and systems that conventional strategy processes can miss.
What I Bring:
Organizational Clarity: audits, staff interviews, surveys, leadership alignment, identifying gaps between mission and practice.
Story & Strategy: messaging, narrative development, audience engagement, funder communications, translating organizational value into compelling stories.
Creative Facilitation:: workshops that use storytelling and creative methods to solve problems, surface ideas, and develop shared direction.
The Process: Three Case Studies
Here’s an idea of how I work with different clients:
Streamlining a Cultural Nonprofit
Seeking organizational alignment, I worked with a 30-year old community advocacy nonprofit with a small staff serving over 6,000 people annually.
After interviews, assessments, board meetings, and synthesizing audience feedback, we streamlined their program offerings, clarified staff roles, and restructured board communications.
Communication in a National Social Justice Organization
To improve communication between leadership and staff, I conducted individual interviews and a cross-departmental needs assessment to identify organizational challenges and opportunities for improvement.
I then designed and facilitated a staff-wide workshop focused on team building, communication practices, and cross-departmental collaboration.
Staff Development for Arts Education
Reacting to the needs of youth in a city-wide education program, I created a trauma-informed curriculum to strengthen program outcomes.
After creating and delivering staff trainings, I shifted curriculum goals to center student voice and staff skills alongside learning objectives. We saw an increase in student engagement, attendance, and creativity.
