"People have 
got to hear about this!"

There is a powerful story inside your organization.

How are you telling it? I know how it goes with small organizations. Your time, budget and human resources are stretched to capacity. Strategic communications, professional marketing and good branding all sound like luxuries. Sustaining your programs – let alone growing them – requires nonstop pursuit of funding and sponsorship. Everyone who listens to your story should be inspired to say, "Wow! People have got to hear about this!"

Let’s work together to find your voice.

My clients come to me when they have trouble converting outbound communications into meaningful contributions. We usually find a solution in one of these three areas:

• Communications Audit. What tools are you using to engage audiences? What are you saying? And how's that working for you?
• Messaging Platform. Let's get clear on the 3-5 core messages that you need to tell every client, donor or customer. 
• Collateral Materials. Print or online. Refreshing current materials or starting from scratch. We can collaborate on a library of communication tools – newsletters, blogs, social media strategies, marketing materials, whatever it takes – that energize more donors, more clients and more partners to contribute the time and money you need to thrive.


You should look and sound great!

I am chiefly a storyteller. I thrive on helping small organizations, nonprofits and solopreneurs strategize and implement marketing and communications programs that fit their resources. 

My goal is to highlight the passion behind your mission. The combined power of new and traditional media offer so many (perhaps, too many?) opportunities to engage donors, clients, and communities. We will cut through the clutter and tell your story in ways that encourage purposeful contributions and grow your programs. 

Think about the communications projects that would make you look and sound great: 

• Communications and marketing audits
• Program and campaign marketing
• Collateral design and development
• Copywriting and editing
• Website content management
• Online strategy development
• Personal branding
• Social media coaching

It's my mantra and 
you're welcome to it

"People have got to hear about this!"

I swear I say this every time I meet a new client. It started several years ago after I made the transition from marketing and advertising agencies as an account executive to the nonprofit world. I discovered my true calling in supporting fundraising and outreach efforts for organizations all over Seattle. 

The organizations and small businesses I work with are mission-driven. Their passion and collaborative sensibility inspire me.

Using my creative and analytical skills, I translate that energy into strategic communications and marketing tools that enhance the mission, not slow it down. I want every $10 gift, every $1 million grant, every hour of volunteer work to be given with the same commitment to your mission. That's great ROI.

My clients 
embrace their "small"

A quick story about why I love my clients:

Have you ever watched hummingbirds fly? They do things no other bird can do. One moment they are hovering motionless overhead. In a flash, they can drop and dart, turn around and back up in mid air. They disappear from view, then pop back up chasing a rogue bluebird. They are on a mission to protect their territory.

What these little guys lack in size, they more than make up for in speed, agility and the sheer power in their tiny muscles. 

My ideal clients operate the same way. They do amazing things with a small staff and limited budget. A good marketing and communications program shouldn’t slow them down or drain their resources. 

That’s where I can help.

Here's a list of recent client projects.
