I support foundations, philanthropists and nonprofit organizations to design, implement and evaluate projects that help them meet their mission and vision in the community through data informed practices. I will extend executive staff bandwidth to explore an area you want to look into, but maybe are not quite ready to commit staffing and major fund raising to. I am a partner to help expand agency impact in smart and tested ways. When people look at my experience I often hear, “Wow! You have done a lot of different things!” That is certainly true and has included many roles with for-profit and nonprofit entities, big companies and startups. But each way station in my career has built on the ones before it, going deeper and higher at the same time. I have created a path through communities that are important to me and that positively impact their constituents. That path represents 30+ years of experience in researching issues, developing programs and implementing solutions to advance the work of foundations, philanthropists, community organizations, universities, and policy advocates. I am passionate about making connections and seeing them through to the end. I am committed to using data to drive decisions so that limited resources can be best spent for the outcomes we want to see in this world. Of course, this is not done alone. I have led teams from 5 to 75 but equally enjoy being a sole contributor who takes on the challenge and gets stuff done!Specialties: Nonprofit LeadershipProject strategy, implementation and evaluationFoundation and donor relationsCommunity affairsPolicy advocacy
