Hi, thanks for stopping by my page. I hope to get the chance to learn more about your story soon.
When I lived in South Africa, I earned the title 'Sledgehammer to a Glass Ceiling' for breaking through perceived limits in community building within a deeply divided, post-apartheid society. By partnering with passionate local leaders, I founded a thriving nonprofit that served 15,000 students and mobilized hundreds of global volunteers. This experience shaped my understanding of the joys and challenges of nonprofit leadership, including fundraising, staff development, and the critical need to prevent burnout.
Over the past two decades, I’ve partnered with organizations and their leaders, helping raise over $1 billion to expand nonprofit impact locally and globally. For nonprofits to truly thrive, their leaders must thrive, too. When organizations create the conditions for their success, they raise more funds, build resilient & engaged cultures, and reignite the passion that drives their work.
What's the bottom line?
I help clients increase their impact and foster sustainable, joy-filled leadership:
- Leadership Development:Building the essential skills for mission-driven growth and success
- Nonprofit Consulting:Proven pathways to align strategy, culture, fundraising, and storytelling for greater impact
Together, we will achieve your goals and elevate your leadership—all while enjoying the process.
