You’ve got a mission to lead, a team to support, and a hundred fires to put out. The marketing work? It still matters — and it still has to get done. That’s where I come in.
I’m a marketing and communications pro with two decades of experience helping nonprofits and small businesses tell their story, reach their community, and finally cross those lingering to-dos off the list.
Consider me your partner, your extra set of hands, and the person you trust to run with it.
I combine strategic expertise with hands-on execution — so you get the brain and the horsepower in one.
I support Executive Directors, Marketing Directors, and Business Owners of nonprofits and small businesses — mostly in Portland, but also across the PNW and beyond.
My clients are busy. They’re smart. They care deeply about their work. And they need someone they can trust to take things off their plate and run with them. No hand-holding. No babysitting. Just reliable, high-quality support.
If you’re nodding right now… we’ll probably work great together.
I love nonprofits. I love small businesses. And I care about the people and stories that make our communities unique. Nonprofits fill gaps that literally change lives. Small businesses give cities like Portland their character and soul. I feel lucky to help both shine — and to support the leaders who make these organizations what they are.
