About Me

I help nonprofit leaders build organizations that are as strong operationally as they are mission-driven.

My Work

Nonprofits exist to serve a mission. They succeed when they are well-run organizations.

I work with leaders to understand how their organizations actually function: how decisions are made, how information flows, and where work gets stuck.

From there, we identify priorities and build systems that allow the organization to operate more effectively and move forward with intention.

Focus Areas

  • Clarifying roles and decision-making

  • Improving communication across teams

  • Aligning operations with mission and values

  • Building systems that support growth and accountability

Approach

I start with a simple question: What problem are you trying to solve?

From there, the work is structured to build clarity, align teams, and create systems that last. And if you’re not sure about the problem? We’ll start by getting to the bottom of that.

About Me

I am a consultant, facilitator, writer, and speaker focused on nonprofit leadership and management. My work brings a finance and operations lens to mission-driven organizations, with an emphasis on clarity, structure, and execution.

I’m based in Chicago and work with nonprofit leaders across the country. I write regularly about nonprofit management and leadership. In addition to the digital tools you’ll find here, I’ve also created a set of planning tools for leaders who prefer to put pen to paper. I love a good planner…

Your plan to change the world needs a plan.

We’ll create one for you that works.
