Engage. Empower. Elevate.
With over 16 years experience in developing successful non-profit initiatives I build upon what works. Engaging with local leaders and organizations on the ground, I listen to where the needs are and what is feasible. Building partnerships around common interest ensures stakeholders are empowered and establishing metrics to measure success ensures that common goals are elevated.
The private sector is ripe with innovation, resources and bright minds. Connecting leaders across the silos of academics, government, philanthropy and community is not only sustainable its good business.
Whether you are a leader of a non-profit ripe to scale, a CEO of a start-up looking for social impact or a philanthropist with a great idea I can meet you where you are in the process and help you connect to impact.
I apply a unique perspective to development having an academic approach with an entrepreneurial edge. My passion is social justice with an emphasis on access to healthcare, equity, and wellbeing. If you have a passion or perspective that fires you up I would love to learn more about how we may collaborate.
