Through people-centered programs, I help lift up leaders, communities, and organizations, so they can live and lead beyond their expectations.
Leaders and organizations all reach a point where they feel stuck, run out of steam, or need a guiding presence through a time of opportunity or change. I understand how challenging it can be to reach this point in the journey.
For over thirteen years now, I have served vulnerable communities and mission-driven organizations during these key moments of development or opportunity. I have worked on programs for capacity building, leadership training, strategy, operations, community engagement and program delivery. I have also worked on innovative interventions for children at risk, sustainable livelihood for survivors of sex trafficking, efforts to fight the online sexual exploitation of children, and programs for financial inclusion.
I have a lifelong commitment to social impact and believe that business and entrepreneurship have powerful roles to play in the pursuit of social justice.
I bring to every opportunity and challenge my interdisciplinary way of thinking, working, and solving problems – as an artist, facilitator, and innovator. In addition, I draw from the disciplines of systems thinking, human-centered design, and participatory development.
Book a call with me, if you are looking for a creative leader & guide, to help you or your organization get unstuck, regain your flow of energy, and navigate a time of change with clarity.
Live and lead beyond your expectations.
