Nonprofit Communications & Fundraising Strategist | Executive Advisor

I help mission-driven organizations and executive leaders build the communication systems, workflows, and operational structure that allow their teams to move faster, stay aligned, and focus on what matters most. I work directly with executive directors, founders, and boards to improve fundraising performance and build the messaging and systems behind it so it actually converts. Some recent outcomes: • 27× year-over-year campaign revenue growth • 5× donor engagement (17% to 66% conversion lift) • 680% audience growth through repositioning • 40% enrollment growth through improved conversion systems • $300K+ gala revenue strategy Most of the time, I’m stepping into situations where things just aren’t fully working yet. Messaging is unclear, teams aren’t aligned, or there’s a push for growth, but no real system behind it to support it. Sometimes it’s during a transition, sometimes things are just moving fast and need more structure. A lot of the organizations I work with already have good people and good intentions. It’s usually the structure and messaging that aren’t holding up. How I usually come in: • Lead messaging and positioning (and fix it when it’s not working) • Build or rebuild fundraising campaigns and donor funnels • Handle board-facing communication and reporting • Step in on crisis or reputational issues when needed • Fill interim leadership gaps on the communications side • Lead rebrands and broader repositioning work Typical starting points: • Campaign or messaging audit (1–2 weeks) • Donor funnel or conversion review • Fundraising campaign strategy sprint I come in on a project or interim basis and take ownership of the communications and fundraising side so it actually runs the way it should, day to day. If you’re at a point where things need to grow, shift, or just start working better, I can step in, bring structure, and get things moving without adding permanent overhead.
