People come to me for: Help with businesses, problems or teams in the 'messy middle' stage - after product-market fit has been found and while a growth playbook is being developed

People come to me for: Women come to me to help them master their nonprofit leadership role, they are curious to discern their thought and behavior patterns which get in the way of their success. They want to improve their relationship with their boss (whether that is an individual or a board or directors) and empower their staff to be reliable decision-makers. Lastly they want more strategies to get out of a reactive loop and gain healthy work/life balance.

My favorite kind of project is: People come to me for gaining clarity, connecting dots and conversations, and being a creative problem solver that gets things done. I also see myself as a professional pep talk giver - we need more of those in our lives.

My favorite kind of project is: the kind where we’re building something from scratch—and you can feel the lightbulb "aha" moments. People come to me for clarity, words that are actually useful, and stories that resonate. They trust my experience, appreciate my positivity, and like that I don’t take myself too seriously—I genuinely enjoy what I do, and it shows.

My favorite kind of project is one where you can come to me for branding and design that actually makes sense for who you are and what you're trying to do. Whether you're starting a new project, re-branding an old one, or just need someone to help your "thing" look as good as it deserves to, I'm good at translating "I know what I want but I can't quite explain it" into something visual!
