what can I do for you?
Social change work is hard. Resourcing our movements takes time and energy. Here is how I can support you, your staff and your organization.
Grant and report writing
I have a decade of experience researching funding opportunities, engaging funders, preparing solicitation requests, crafting budgets, writing grant proposals and reports. I have regularly secured over $700,000 in funds annually from federal, state and county governments as well as private foundations and corporate sources.
Some funds I have successfully secured and renewed are:
The Ahmanson Foundation
The Annenberg Foundation
Department of Justice, Office of Violence Against Women
The California Wellness Foundation
The NoVo Foundation
Weingart Foundation
Organizational Development
I have held senior leadership positions at my current non-profit for almost 10 years and therefore have a breadth and depth of experience with the infrastructure and operations needs of non-profits and their staff.
I can support you and your staff in the following area:
Strategic Planning
Program Evaluation
Research and Data Analysis
Program Design
Donor Management
Budget development
Staff Supervision and Management
Communications and Marketing
Leadership Development
Facilitation
Streamlining Operations
Change Management
Speaking
I am regularly invited to speak on issues of human rights, policing, fundraising, immigration, health care, gender-based violence, visioning and taking grounded action. My talks are engaging, interactive and lively and are tailored from 20 minutes to a multi-day workshop.
Some places I have spoken
Latin American Association Conference, Puerto Rico
National South Asian Summit, Washington D.C
University of California, Los Angeles
University of California, Irvine
University of Southern California
The Claremont Colleges
Coaching
Often times despite our best efforts we act out of alignment with our values, especially when the pressure and stakes are high. But through support we can intentionally let go of our old ways of being and consciously practice something different.
