Work With Me

I would love to help you tell your story.

It’s my joy to amplify the work of mission-driven individuals, small businesses, and organizations through my experience and skills in strategic communications.

Are you seeking to improve the world through your work?
Do you need a fresh way to talk about your work and why it matters?
Strategy and visioning support help to clarify your direction?
Assistance with writing and messaging?

I’d love to help you connect with your customers, clients, and supporters by stepping into a clearer and more effective expression of your gifts, offerings, and mission.

Uniquely Prepared to Help You

I am uniquely prepared to help you. I studied at Columbia University (B.A, political science) and the NYU Wagner School of Public Service (M.P.A., nonprofit management), where I also honed my writing chops at the NYU Graduate School of Journalism.

The wonderful folks over at Big Duck taught me about branding and communications for mission-driven and service-focused efforts, through my many years of work for them as a communications strategist.

My experience also includes:

  • Two decades of experience in the nonprofit sector, including experience leading a nonprofit board and spearheading its strategic planning and fundraising efforts, leading to a doubled annual budget
  • Serving as a communications strategist to nonprofits, helping them refine their branding and communications and tell compelling stories to raise awareness and funding
  • Experience developing compelling, successful proposals that garnered millions of dollars in funding (from principal and major donors; private foundations; and city, state, and federal government)
  • Serving as a consultant to national foundations on writing and program evaluation projects
  • Organizing a network of prominent funders committed to strategic dialogue and action to improve the lives of women and girls in New York City
  • Serving on grant proposal review committees for New York City government and a private foundation
  • Experience as an entrepreneur, including expertise in small business communications, outreach, and business development.
  • Professional writing experience, encompassing both business writing and published creative writing.
