Work With Me:

Consulting, Advisory & Mentorship

I work with organizations, institutions, and individuals navigating moments of complexity, transition, and possibility. I help them design strategies, cultures, and systems that are resilient, human-centered, and future-ready.

  • Consulting → project-based, organizational, concrete outcomes

  • Advisory → ongoing thought partnership, leadership support

  • Mentorship → personal, reflective, purpose-oriented

Who I Work With

Organizations—

I tend to work best with:

  • Mission‑driven organizations and institutions facing growth, complexity, or strategic transition.

  • Foundations, networks, and civic or cultural organizations seeking more human‑centered, resilient ways of working.

  • Creative, impact‑oriented companies aligning strategy, culture, and long‑term purpose.

  • Organizations preparing to deliver meaningful impact in a rapidly changing world.

Individuals—

I also work one‑on‑one with people who are:

  • Clarifying their direction, purpose, or next chapter.

  • Stepping into greater leadership, visibility, or responsibility.

  • Navigating career transitions, burnout, or reinvention.

  • Seeking a grounded, thoughtful space to reflect, sense‑make, and move forward with intention.

If you feel like you’re standing between worlds — leaving something behind, but not yet fully arrived — we’ll likely work well together.

Consulting & Strategic Design

This work often blends systems thinking, facilitation, and creative strategy. Moving beyond slide decks into actionable, human‑centered outcomes.

Typical engagements:

  • Strategic visioning & roadmap design

  • Organizational or network design

  • Culture, values, and narrative alignment

  • Program or initiative prototyping

Advisory & Thought Partnership

As an advisor, I support:

  • Executive decision‑making in complex or ambiguous contexts

  • Long‑range thinking beyond quarterly cycles

  • Sense‑making across social, cultural, and organizational change

  • Acting as a trusted external mirror — asking better questions, not just offering answers

Formats include:

  • Monthly or quarterly advisory retainers

  • Board or leadership‑team advising

Mentorship & Leadership Development

I mentor individuals who are stepping into greater responsibility, visibility, or creative leadership — often without a clear roadmap.

This work is especially suited for people who:

  • Feel called to lead differently than traditional models allow

  • Are navigating burnout, transition, or reinvention

  • Want to grow their influence without losing their humanity

My Approach

Across all engagements, my work is guided by a few core principles:

  • Human‑centered, not heroic — leadership and change are shared capacities

  • Systems + story — lasting change requires both structural design and narrative clarity

  • With and through, not for — the people closest to the work hold essential wisdom

  • Experimentation over certainty — we prototype, learn, and adapt

I don’t offer one‑size‑fits‑all solutions. I help you design context‑specific, living systems that can evolve over time.

What Clients Often Say They Gain

  • Clearer direction and decision‑making

  • Renewed energy and sense of purpose

  • More aligned teams and healthier culture

  • Practical strategies that reflect real‑world complexity

  • Language and narratives that help others understand and support the work

Engagements & Availability

I work with a small number of clients at a time to ensure depth and quality. Engagements range from short‑term intensives to longer advisory relationships.

If you’re curious about working together, the first step is a conversation — to see if there’s mutual fit and shared intent.
