I help nonprofits build the operational backbone they need to grow—clearer systems, stronger infrastructure, and the kind of internal systems funders, partners, and boards expect to see. I'm a nonprofit consultant with 25+ years of experience across the sector, including 13 years as a founding executive director, 7+ years of consulting, technical assistance, and federal grant review service for the U.S. Department of Education. I've built a nonprofit from the ground up, increased annual revenue 24x, managed multi-million-dollar funding portfolios, and designed grant and program operations systems for a national multi-site education network. Most nonprofit leaders I work with don't need more advice. They need clarity, structure, and someone who can translate what they're already doing into something organized, repeatable, and credible. I WORK BEST WITH NONPROFITS THAT ARE: • Growing faster than their internal systems can keep up • Early-stage or rebuilding and in need of foundational structure • Preparing for funding, partnerships, or organizational growth • Operating without clear SOPs, workflows, or documentation • Stretched thin and looking for someone to bring order to operations • Pursuing a fundraising strategy, not just a grant writer • Strengthening board, governance, or programmatic infrastructure WHAT I OFFER ON UPWORK: Nonprofit Operations & Systems • Workflow, SOP, and documentation development • Operational audits and process improvement • Internal systems design (tracking, reporting, project management tools) • Grant operations infrastructure—compliance, tracking, reporting • Vendor, contractor, and cross-functional coordination support Organizational Strategy & Infrastructure • Organizational assessments and capacity-building plans • Board development, recruitment, and governance support • Policy and procedure development • Program design, implementation, and evaluation support • Technical assistance and training for nonprofit teams Fundraising Strategy & Coaching • Fundraising strategy development across individual giving, events, corporate, and peer-to-peer channels • Donor engagement, stewardship, and retention planning • CRM cleanup, donor segmentation, and data strategy • Fundraising campaign content and copy support (appeals, stewardship messaging, sponsorship outreach) • Coaching for executive directors and development leads Funding Readiness • Grant readiness audits and snapshots • Funding strategy and prospect alignment • Organizational narrative review • 30-Day Funding Readiness Roadmaps WHAT I DON'T TAKE ON: To protect your time and mine, I do not offer: • Last-minute proposal turnarounds • Open-ended coaching without clear scope or deliverables If you're looking for someone who can take a holistic view of what your organization actually needs, let's talk. Note: While my consulting practice is primarily focused on nonprofit operations, I also take on selected projects in adjacent areas, including database setup, editorial work, website design, and systems design, for small businesses and mission-driven ventures.
