Your Partner in
Shaping Strategy,
Charting Change,
Growing Grants
You have a mission worth investing in.
You see unmet needs and have big ideas. Yet, like many nonprofits, your teams have been too busy navigating the tyranny of the urgent to prioritize strategic growth.
For 30 years, I had the privilege of learning and leading strategy, planning and grants within Illinois' largest health and human service system. Together with my teams, we sharpened organizational focus, developed new initiatives, secured over $100 million in grant revenue, and most importantly, made a difference in our communities. With a deep understanding of the challenges nonprofit agencies face, particularly shortfalls in R&D, I am uniquely positioned to be your partner in enhancing impact and enriching lives. If you are a nonprofit leader looking to incubate strategic initiatives or unlock your grants potential, let's talk.
