Services

Counsel for the work, and for the person doing it.

Four pathways to help visionary leaders and philanthropists execute their most meaningful work with clarity, courage, and lasting impact.

Offering 01

Coaching

I don’t tell you what to do. I help you unlock your own leadership genius.

Coaching fosters individual growth that catalyzes institutional and ecosystem-level change. The most valuable coaches are deep listeners who trust their clients; strategic provocateurs who unblock brilliance with the right question; caring accountability partners who hold high standards with unwavering honesty; and empathic champions who truly understand the executive terrain.

That is how I show up for every client, in every session.

Offering 02

Mentoring

Extraordinary leaders deserve the scaffolding to thrive.

High-performing people are frequently thrust into executive or officer roles without sufficient scaffolding. Leaders new to their positions or navigating pivotal inflection points benefit enormously from a thought partner who knows the terrain, shares generously, and nurtures their intentional evolution.

I’m uniquely equipped to support visionaries blazing new trails, first-time executive directors or board chairs, and leadership teams navigating growth, restructuring, or major transitions.

Offering 03

Philanthropic Advising

Fostering mutually fulfilling connections between movement-minded donors and leaders shaping their fields.

The strongest through line of my career has been facilitating the flow of vital resources — knowledge, talent, networks, and money — toward noble causes and transformative outcomes.

Our movements rarely lack inspired teams, smart plans, or effective programs; what they often lack is sufficient funding. Meanwhile, many individuals with wealth hold movement values and seek profound meaning in sharing their resources. I bring them together in ways that enrich all involved.

Offering 04

Consulting

Clear-eyed strategy for the moments that define an institution.

I partner with mission-driven organizations, funds, and foundations at critical junctures: charting a new direction, navigating executive transition, or redefining organizational identity. I bring two decades of hands-on experience as a founder, executive, grantmaker, and board member.
