For Organizations Facing Challenges That Need Hands-On Partnership.
You're not looking for a training catalog. You're facing something specific.
Maybe your coordinated entry system isn't working and you can't figure out why. Maybe you need to rebuild a strategic plan that actually means something. Maybe your leadership team is underwater and you need someone who's been there. Maybe there's a conflict eroding trust and internal processes can't fix it. Maybe a funder or regulator is asking questions you can't answer.
These aren't problems you solve with a course. They need hands-on partnership. Someone who understands the work because they've done it. Someone who will tell you the truth about what they find. Someone who stays until it holds.
That's how I work.
What I Offer
EIA Collective Services
Strategic planning, system redesign, policy & technical assistance, executive coaching, and custom training — delivered through EIA Collective, a consultancy I co-founded with Darlene Mathews.
We've partnered with communities and organizations across the country to facilitate hard conversations, redesign broken processes, and implement changes that stick.
Includes: Strategic Planning, Policy & TA, The Leadership Collaborative, Custom Training
ombudsman services
When trust breaks down, you need someone independent. Not internal HR. Not a board member with divided loyalties. Someone who can investigate complaints, mediate disputes, and protect everyone's rights — while preserving the mission that brought you together.
I provide ombudsman services for organizations, individuals, and communities. Client rights advocacy. Staff dispute resolution. Organizational integrity reviews. Community accountability processes.
For: Organizations facing complaints, grievances, or trust breakdowns that internal processes can't resolve.
How Consulting Works
Every engagement starts the same way: a conversation.
No pitch. No pressure. Just clarity about what you're facing and whether I can help.
I take on a limited number of consulting clients at a time. I go deep. I stay until it holds.
If that's what you need, let's talk.
