Story Isn’t Soft. It’s Strategy.
This is how I work.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach. Let’s design what works.
Projects
Sometimes you need someone to solve a defined problem. I can help solve that problem through research, strategy, organizational design, positioning, webinars, recruiting, stakeholder engagement, or another clearly scoped challenge.
Strategic Advisor & Fractional Leadership
Sometimes you need experienced capacity during an unusually demanding period. I can add that level of capacity without adding another full-time employee, becoming a regular extension of your leadership team, helping them gather intelligence, establish priorities, connect initiatives, challenge assumptions, and move work from strategy to execution.
1:1 Coaching
Sometimes you need a trusted advisor who can step back with you, connect the dots, and help move important work forward. I can help you navigate an important personal transition, using high-touch coaching for high school and college students and professionals working through college, major, career, writing, or other personal narrative decisions.
Why me?
I’ve spent more than 30 years working across education, learning, workforce, research, and organizational strategy.
I’m trained as a researcher, but research is only part of what I bring. I listen deeply. I recognize patterns. I’m comfortable when the answer isn’t obvious. I understand organizational dynamics and can move between big-picture strategy and the details required to make something actually happen.
Clients come to me for judgment, context, diplomacy, accountability, implementation, and someone willing to put their professional reputation behind a recommendation.
