About.

Driven by a passion for cultivating transformative change, I bring a unique blend of systems thinking, relationship building, and creative problem-solving to the nonprofit sector. My approach as a strategic advisor focuses on empowering people, strengthening operations, and crafting innovative, sustainable solutions that drive lasting impact for mission-driven organizations.

With two decades of experience driving systems change within nonprofits, I bring deep expertise in systems thinking, relationship building, and project management to my role as a strategic advisor. My passion lies in cultivating transformative change by partnering with nonprofits to create sustainable, scalable solutions that empower their people and strengthen operations.
​
My work spans diverse sectors, including environmental advocacy, museums, arts education, cultural organizations, and economic development. As a Prosci-certified Change Management Practitioner, I'm committed to modeling integrity and stewarding processes that reinforce or rebuild the critical foundations of effective movements. I specialize in designing operational roadmaps that transform digital ecosystems for the people who use them, while guiding cross-functional teams through complex transitions to optimize processes and enhance organizational effectiveness.

In addition to my professional background, my experience as an artist and entrepreneur has sharpened my skills in creative problem-solving and critical analysis. This unique perspective allows me to approach challenges with a generative mindset, crafting innovative solutions that drive meaningful change. When I'm not collaborating with teams to align CRM strategies and streamline operations, you'll find me practicing the art of natural perfumery, tending to my garden, or curling up with a good book alongside my husband and two cats in our Oakland home.
