Senior-level help for the work your team can't get to.

Project management. Leadership coaching. Strategic clarity. I work alongside mission-driven organizations to drive complex work to completion.

Project Management

You have a program to launch, an initiative that's behind schedule, or a body of work that needs someone to own the timeline, coordinate stakeholders, and drive it to completion.

I provide hands-on project management for mission-driven organizations, not just a Gantt chart, but the judgment and follow-through to keep complex work on track when the timeline is tight and the stakes are real.

Recent work has included early childhood program launches, volunteer mobilization implementation for NYC's largest volunteer nonprofit, event content development for major foundations, and academic program design for K-12 schools.

Leadership Coaching

Your program directors, school leaders, or department heads are navigating organizational growth, performance challenges, or high-stakes decisions, and they need a thought partner with operational experience, not abstract frameworks.

I coach leaders through the real work: clarifying priorities, managing up and across, building teams, making hard calls with imperfect information, and developing the judgment that comes from decades of leading organizations.

This work often sits alongside project management or strategy engagements: coaching the people while driving the work.

Strategic Clarity

Strategy only works when everyone is aligned: your board, your leadership team, your funders. I help organizations get clear on what they're doing and why, build alignment around the path forward, and turn that clarity into plans and materials that drive real impact.

That includes strategic plans, grant proposals, data analyses, and board-ready presentations, all grounded in actual program decisions, not boilerplate.

Charter Renewal: Where All Three Come Together

Renewal is where project management, leadership coaching, and strategy converge under a hard deadline. I've supported 15+ schools through charter renewal and material revision in California and Washington, D.C.: petition drafting, performance narrative, data strategy, authorizer response, and hearing preparation.

This is our deepest specialization, and it has its own dedicated page.

Most engagements combine elements of PM, coaching, and strategy. A 30-minute discovery call is the fastest way to figure out the right scope, no commitment, no pitch.
