Build awareness.
Mobilize your community. Change policy.
You know your nonprofit is doing game-changing work, but it’s not getting the attention it deserves.
I'm here to help you make it impossible for decision-makers to keep ignoring you.
I work with you to build realistic communications and advocacy roadmaps that actually bring people together and move decision-makers to action. No fluff, no corporate speak, just strategies that work because they're grounded in real talk and shared values.
You’re missing opportunities to mobilize your supporters and create lasting change.
​Your team is:
-
Overwhelmed and scrambling to get out critical communications, leading to missed opportunities and muddled messaging
-
Not communicating consistently, leading to long gaps in outreach to your most passionate supporters and risking the chance they’ll shift their resources elsewhere
-
Frustrated that key decision-makers aren’t listening
-
Putting a ton of time and effort into a bunch of scattered communication tactics but not getting results for your organization or issues
​
Your organization is doing great work. It's time to become a powerhouse communicator that mobilizes your community and creates lasting change.
I'm here to help you
mobilize your community,
be heard by decision-makers, and
create lasting change.
I wish it were true, but passion for a cause isn’t enough.
When I started working in nonprofits, I was just a passionate kid right out of college who wanted to change the world. I didn't know much about running campaigns or strategic communications. I just happened to be a good writer who cared deeply about making the world a better place.​​
I’ve been in your shoes. Overwhelmed and worried.
I learned the hard way that nonprofits are expected to do everything, often with few resources and no time to think strategically. You're scrambling to get critical communications out the door, leading to missed opportunities and muddled messaging. Your most passionate supporters drift away during long gaps in outreach. You put tons of effort into scattered tactics but don't see results.
It’s not impossible. You just need the right strategy that works for your team.
I've been part of dozens of campaigns that changed public policy for good, from banning plastic microbeads in personal care products nationwide to forcing the US and Canadian governments to implement an environmentally friendly water levels plan for the Great Lakes. I've transformed communications for organizations, helping them shift from scattered and reactive tactics to strategic campaigns that actually move decision-makers.
Because here's what I've learned: authentic messaging and people power beat fancy PR every time.
You don't need a huge budget or paid lobbyists. You need realistic strategies that work for your team and help you make it impossible for decision-makers to keep ignoring you.
