Greater Seattle Area

I offer a full range of services to non-profit and government clients, including policy and data analysis, direct lobbying, organizational development and planning.

I have driven an agenda at WTA that focuses on the three pillars of good policy advocacy--lobbying, communication and organizing. When I started lobbying in 2003, my first task was to reform the Non Highway and Off-road Vehicle Activities (NOVA) program. I succeeded in that task in 2004, closing the books on a 17-year WTA priority. Along the way, I have increased funding and made good policy for land management partners from DNR to State Parks to the National Forest System.I am a strong strategic collaborator, spearheading coalitions like the Sustainable Roads Cadre, which aims to assist and advise the Forest Service on Travel Management Planning, and offering my time, energy and expertise to numerous conservation coalitions.

As Membership Director, I ran all aspects of MPIRG's public outreach program, including door-to-door, mail and phone organizing. The outreach program raised support for MPIRG's campaign work and supplemented the organization's campus activist.As Campus Organizer, I was responsible for all student organizng activities at Macalester and Augsburg Colleges and was on a team of organizers focused on the chapter renewal process at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities.
