I've spent over a decade building and optimizing operations for mission-driven organizations—from grassroots nonprofits to national institutions. Most recently, as Director of Board, Executive & Strategic Initiatives at Planned Parenthood of Metropolitan Washington, I managed the Executive Office with a $950K operating budget, provided strategic support to the CEO and Board leadership, and led critical initiatives including executive searches, expansion projects, and crisis preparedness planning.
Before that, I supported C-suite leadership at United Way Worldwide, where I streamlined executive operations, improved information flow across a national network, and championed workplace culture initiatives that increased employee engagement and satisfaction.I've led operations for youth-serving organizations, coordinated complex Board governance processes, managed organizational transitions, and built systems from the ground up in resource-constrained environments. I understand nonprofit culture—the passion, the limited budgets, the mission-driven urgency, and the operational chaos that comes with trying to change the world on a shoestring.

I also understand burnout—both organizational and personal. As a late-diagnosed AuDHD professional who's navigated my own recovery, I know that sustainable operations aren't about working harder or longer. They're about building systems that work with your team's capacity, not against it. That's why my approach focuses on operational sustainability that strengthens organizations without depleting the people running them.
