    Over 20 years of experience writing funding proposals and building the capacity of nonprofits. I am currently working on a Certificate in Nonprofit Management. In addition to grant writing, I specialize in developing logic models and evaluation plans. I have also worked on the receiving end of the grant process-- reviewing proposals and awarding funds -- so I know what funders are looking for. 98% of the nonprofits that submitted 6-10 applications in a year, win at least one of them. The more you submit, the better your chances are of winning a grant. I can research funding opportunities, write the content of the proposal, and help you with the budget. I’ve worked for nonprofits around the globe and have broad experience across human service areas. I'm easy to work with and efficient.

    I am a college and post graduate life coach expert with twelve years working with young adults. My areas of expertise include career exploration, college application, and employment skills (like resume building and interview preparation). Seven of my twelve years, I worked at a community college, gaining extensive knowledge of the onboarding processes (ie. FAFSA, enrolling in classes etc.) as well as refining the best practices in being a successful college student and launching to the next phase of life. My time in higher education also meant an in-depth understanding of the application and transferring process especially including California schools (Cal State and UC) as well as private institutions. My coaching style is client-centered and driven, meaning your confidence, empowerment, and understanding of the tools and skills we are working on together is of the utmost importance. As a result of my coaching support, my students have successfully moved on attending UC Berkeley and Davis as well as beyond (including medical school and successful careers). I support my clients from start to finish with efficiency, thoroughness and care. I am passionate about this season in a young person’s life and am determined to be a person of support, dispelling what can often feel overwhelming and impossible, and breaking it down to make it feel doable and achievable!
