Business Development, Proposal and Capture Management, RFPs, Health

I am a business development professional with twenty years of experience in government contracting, managing opportunity pipelines, capture and proposal processes, RFP responses, and health programming. I have a proven track record of winning new business, securing over $400 million from foundations and government clients. I provide full-service business development consulting services, partnering with nonprofit and for-profit organizations at every stage of growth, from client engagement, market intelligence, and positioning to technical approach creation, proposal strategy, and development. I have deep experience with complex project designs, grant applications, and translating project success to storytelling impact. Growth is a marathon, not a sprint. By applying rigorous grant development and writing processes, I bring clarity to uncertain funding environments. My innovative Analyze, Reveal, Craft, and Hone (ARCH) growth model helps clients build disciplined, repeatable systems for identifying, pursuing, and winning new business in government and philanthropic markets. Recognizing that strong proposals are not sufficient, I work with organizations across the entire business development lifecycle to accelerate growth. Analyze: Gather data and stories that define unique value. Reveal: Identify clients and funders, understand their needs, and frame impact that resonates. Craft: Deliver compelling proposals that inspire partnership and investment. Hone: Refine process and products to support future wins. I have partnered with dozens of nonprofit organizations, universities, companies, and government agencies to strengthen their ability to bid on and deliver complex health, governance, and nutrition programming, working with organizations like John Snow International, The Palladium Group, Global Communities, Johns Hopkins University, Emory University, and Helen Keller International.
