Grant writing, project management and narrative strategy for mission-driven organizations

Behind every impactful organization is an authentic story — and an effective strategy to turn that story into measurable impact. By pairing a robust grant strategy with hands-on project management and clear, compelling narrative development, I can help your organization communicate effectively, build trust and attract lasting support.
