I help government contractors, nonprofits, foundations, and donor-funded organizations turn complex RFPs, grants, and funding opportunities into clear, compliant, and competitive submissions backed by defensible pricing and measurable impact. I bring 10+ years of experience supporting proposals, budgets, programs, and investments valued from $150K to $350M. Clients bring me opportunities where the technical narrative, budget, compliance requirements, and impact case all need to work together. I help shape the strategy, strengthen the writing, price the work, test the assumptions, and show why the investment is worth making. SELECTED RESULTS • Priced and modeled government and donor-funded opportunities from $150K to $350M • Guided decisions involving profitability, financial risk, proposal compliance, proposed returns, and pricing trade-offs • Achieved 25% savings on a $3M corporate community-investment portfolio • Built Power BI dashboards for financial performance, forecasting, pipeline management, and executive decision-making • Developed SROI and impact-valuation models that translate social outcomes into credible financial value PROPOSAL, GRANT & FUNDING STRATEGY I develop and strengthen proposals across federal, state, local, foundation, corporate, bilateral, multilateral, and other competitive funding mechanisms. Services include: • Proposal and grant writing • RFP, RFQ, RFA, NOFO, and solicitation analysis • Technical narratives and management approaches • Compliance matrices and proposal outlines • Budget narratives and cost narratives • Foundation and corporate grant applications • Government contract and donor proposals • Proposal editing, red-team review, and quality control • Capture, partnership, and consortium strategy • Theory of Change, results frameworks, and impact-case development GOVCON PRICING & FINANCIAL ANALYSIS I help clients build pricing and financial strategies that are competitive, compliant, and operationally realistic. Services include: • Cost proposals and cost volumes • Financial modeling and forecasting • Cost realism and price-reasonableness analysis • Staffing and level-of-effort models • Scenario, sensitivity, and profitability analysis • Subcontractor and partner budget reviews • Cost and price analysis • Negotiation and audit support • Excel pricing models • Power BI dashboards and executive reporting I do more than make the spreadsheet total correctly. I help ensure the technical strategy, staffing, budget, risk, and expected return support the same decision. ESG, CSR & SOCIAL IMPACT I help companies, nonprofits, foundations, and philanthropic funders measure and communicate the financial and social value created by programs and investments. Services include: • ESG, CSR, sustainability, and social impact reporting • Social Return on Investment and financial valuation of social outcomes • Theory of Change, logic models, outcome frameworks, and indicators • Community-investment and shared-value strategy • Stakeholder engagement and social materiality analysis • Program evaluation and MEL • SDG and IRIS+ alignment • Impact dashboards, reports, white papers, and case studies For private-sector clients, I quantify social outcomes in financial terms and develop reporting that shows what changed, who experienced the change, what value was created, and whether ESG, CSR, or community-investment initiatives delivered a credible return. WHY CLIENTS HIRE ME Colleagues describe me as the person who stays calm, gets teams unstuck, and explains not only what needs to change, but why. I bring financial rigor to proposal development and practical business judgment to impact measurement. That means fewer handoffs, less lost context, and a final submission or report in which the strategy, numbers, evidence, and writing support the same objective. Bring me the solicitation, draft narrative, pricing model, grant application, ESG framework, or impact report. I will help you find the gaps, strengthen the case, and get the work ready for serious review.

I help businesses stop wasting money on marketing that doesn't convert and start investing in what actually works. With 8 years in digital marketing, I specialize in helping companies build reliable systems to bring in leads that are actually interested in their product or service. My cross-functional background in marketing, sales operations, and consumer psychology means I see the full picture: what motivates your customers, what's slowing down your team, and where the real opportunities are hiding. What I bring to your projects: I'm a HubSpot veteran who can handle everything from CRM setup or migration to workflow automation to lead scoring, campaign management, and integration with your existing tools. I build systems that work while you sleep. Beyond HubSpot, I help businesses grow through: SEO/AEO/GEO: Optimizing for search engines, AI platforms, and generative results Conversion Rate Optimization: Turning more visitors into customers Email Marketing: Campaigns that actually get ROI LinkedIn Marketing: B2B outreach that feels human, not spammy Blog & Content Growth: Strategic content that drives traffic and conversions Market Research & Analytics: Data-driven decisions, not guesswork Strategic guidance that makes everything else work better: A lot of businesses jump into tactics before getting the foundation right. I help you clarify exactly who your ideal customer is, understand their pain points in their own language, and identify which channels will actually give you the best ROI. I'll assess what's realistic for your team size, budget, and capabilities, and show you how to use cutting-edge AI tools to do more with less. Usually, the biggest wins come from fixing things you didn't even know were holding you back. Why clients choose to work with me: I don't believe in cookie-cutter solutions. Every business has different goals, different audiences, and different bottlenecks. I take time to understand your specific situation before recommending what'll actually move the needle for you. If your current marketing feels like throwing money at the wall to see what sticks, let's fix that. I'll show you exactly what's working, what's not, and how to get more from every dollar you spend. Book a meeting today and let's get started.
