At River Jordan, storytelling is both a vocation and a strategy for societal impact. With a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing and proficiency in grant acquisition, my career spans two decades of weaving narratives that resonate deeply with audiences and securing funding for meaningful community projects. Our work has resulted in the successful procurement of multi-million dollar grants, demonstrating a keen ability to engage and persuade a variety of stakeholders.As an Author, Speaker, and Broadcaster, I leverage my expertise in creative writing to explore the human condition, while my experience as a Grants Manager at Nashville State Community College has honed my skills in strategic funding acquisition. Our mission is to utilize the art of storytelling as a powerful conduit for change, fostering connections and nurturing community growth through both the written word and impactful funding initiatives.
