I am a strategic grant consultant and founder of Cedar Grants Consulting, with over four years of cross-continental experience supporting mission-driven organisations across England and Nigeria. I bring a rare combination of non-profit grant writing expertise and for-profit grant management experience. I have helped organisations secure over £91,000 in grant funding from trusts and foundations, across sectors including community welfare, health and wellbeing, women's empowerment, youth and mentorship, arts and inclusion, disability, and education. Alongside this, I work in grants management within the medical education industry, supporting the coordination and administration of pharmaceutical and medical education grants and sponsorships across the full lifecycle, from funder submission through to contracting. My BSc in Biomedical Sciences and MSc in Public Health give me genuine scientific and public health literacy, meaning I understand the medical and clinical content involved, not just the administrative process around it. What I offer on Upwork: - Grant writing and proposal development for non-profit and charitable organisations - Grant and sponsorship administration for pharmaceutical, medical education, and corporate clients - Funder research and prospecting across UK, European, and international funders - Grant readiness assessments - Pipeline and deadline management - Application review and editing I use industry tools including Fundin.ai, Charity Excellence Framework, Candid, GrantStation, Grantable, and GEMS, and I bring the same rigour and care to every engagement regardless of sector or size. I hold a BSc in Biomedical Sciences from Queen's University Belfast and a Master's in Public Health from the University of South Wales. If you need a grant consultant who understands both the science and the strategy, across non-profit and for-profit contexts, I would be glad to discuss your project.

Executive Startup Advisor & Non-Dilutive Funding Strategist | PhD | 10+ Years | $50M+ Secured | Federal Grants & Contracts | 3x Founder | TedX Speaker I remember how challenging it was to transition from a PhD scientist into an early-stage startup founder, executive, & operator. Over the past 10+ years through building start-ups myself and advising hundreds of founders, I’ve seen how difficult it can be for technical and clinical founders to turn strong science into fundable, commercially credible startups. Here’s are some resources to help secure federal grants and contracts: - Website & SBIR/STTR grant templates: keepyourequity.co - YouTube Channel: youtube.com/@stacylchin I’m an Executive Startup Advisor and Non-Dilutive Funding Strategist working with scientists, clinicians, academic PIs, and technical founders spinning high-risk, high-impact R&D innovations out of leading universities and research institutions, including Harvard, MIT, UC Berkeley, Columbia, and UCLA. I’m also a Techstars and MassChallenge mentor and have advised hundreds of early-stage founders across biotech, pharmaceuticals, life sciences, medical devices, diagnostics, AI, climate, energy, defense, and hard tech—often supporting teams tackling some of today’s most complex global challenges and navigating early fundraising and commercialization for the first time. My work focuses on advising early-stage, R&D-driven startups and helping founders make sense of early fundraising, clarify commercialization strategy, and position complex technical innovation in a way that resonates with funders, partners, and investors. I bring this perspective not only as an advisor, but also as a three-time startup founder, having built start-ups in emerging, cross-disciplinary technical spaces where there is no clear playbook. My past work has received support from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and the National Institutes of Health, with media coverage in CNN, NBC, BBC, and The Boston Globe. I’ve secured patents, published peer-reviewed research, won pitch competitions, and held leadership roles across R&D, product development, go-to-market, sales, business development, and commercialization. Over the past decade, I’ve helped startups and research-driven teams secure $50M+ in non-dilutive (non-networked) funding across healthcare, biotech, life sciences, medical devices, and hard tech through highly competitive federal grants and contracts. One of my earliest clients was awarded one of the first $25M+ ARPA-H contracts, setting an early benchmark for large-scale non-dilutive success. I’ve also served as an SBIR reviewer for both NIH and NSF, participating in multiple study sections and evaluating proposals across technical merit, commercialization strategy, and program fit—experience that directly informs how I advise teams on building competitive funding strategies. In parallel, I run a leading YouTube channel with 10,000+ subscribers, where I teach founders and technical teams how to navigate federal funding, grants, and contracting pathways. Who I Work With & How I Help I advise: • Early-stage, R&D-driven startups and academic spin-outs • PhD scientists, clinician founders, and technical CEOs preparing for first-time fundraising • Executive teams seeking senior, science-literate strategic guidance My work is strategic and advisory, focused on: • Non-dilutive funding strategy (federal grants & contracts; SBIR/STTR) • Fundable R&D, commercialization, and narrative positioning • Pitch decks, technical white papers, and commercialization plans • Go-to-market strategy, customer discovery, and ongoing executive advisory If you’re looking for guidance on how to translate early-stage, high-impact, high-risk innovation into a credible commercialization strategy (e.g., fundraising, positioning, market analysis, go-to-market (GTM) planning), let’s chat!
