Bio: I’m a storyteller and communications strategist committed to helping nonprofits, colleges, and cultural institutions find funding, tell their best stories, and build more inclusive, creative, and connected communities. As a registered professional fundraiser, I create grant narratives, case statements and custom publications that help my clients invest more in scholarships and educational access, great parks and public spaces, capital improvements, conservation, and the occasional orangutan.

Fun fact: I'm a former national magazine and newspaper journalist, and have covered everything from forest fires to fashion shows as a columnist for Mademoiselle, the St. Paul Pioneer Press, and Mpls/St. Paul. I spent my formative years writing relationship advice in women’s magazines. Ask me anything. I’m here to help.​​
