My Services

As a Public Health Advisor and International Children's Health and Wellness Expert, I help organizations identify their strengths, stay focused, and develop compassionate practices as they work to demonstrate their impact. Using quantitative and qualititative data I work with clients to develop a narrative that represents their best work for the communities they serve and to help keep projects properly resourced by creating diverse funding streams.

I am dedicated to working with organizations that lead with love to change hearts and minds and align with my values that promote kindness, hope, justice, peace and equanimity in our communities.

I care deeply about helping communities create compassionate peaceful, productive, and just environments for children.

Many non-profits that are working on social justice issues such as childhood obesity, child sexual abuse, and climate change, struggle to navigate the effects of structural violence in a compassionate and productive way that is both meaningful and impactful. Story-telling with data is one way to show your impact, reinforce your brand and mission, and provide real giving opportunities to funders and supporters.

Need Help With A Big PROJECT? LET’S TALK! Each year I work as an adviser, consultant, and coach with a select number of organizations that promote justice, peace and equanimity in our communities. During my time with them, we work together to develop evidence-based stories that show meaningful impact and demonstrate a benefit to the communities they are serving.
