 WHO AM I?

I’ve been a Grant Writer and Development Director for 20 years, securing funding for for-profits and non-profits alike. I do this work every day both professionally and as a private consultant, helping organizations and creatives access the resources they need to thrive. And as a writer, storyteller, and community organizer, I know firsthand what it means to build something without financial backing—but I also know that we don’t have to struggle to do what we love.

LET’S GET YOU PAID.

If you’re tired of hearing “there’s no money in writing” and ready to tap into the funding that already exists, this guide is for you.
