What exactly is consulting?

Consulting is what happens when you need someone to roll up their sleeves and work the problem alongside you. A strategy to develop, a program to design, a project to run, or a senior perspective you don't currently have in the room. That's what I bring.

Advisory & Consulting

Every project is different. Every client is different. That's kind of the point.
Over a 25-year career that has moved through arts organizations, international cultural exchange, philanthropic grantmaking, and organizational leadership, I've developed a pretty clear sense of what most organizations actually struggle with. It's rarely a lack of information or resources. It's almost always a question of clarity, communication, or the ability to translate a good idea into something people can actually act on.
That might look like developing a strategy, designing a program, managing a project, or simply lending a senior outside perspective at a moment when one would be useful. It could also look like something that doesn't fit neatly into any of those categories, which is honestly where some of the most interesting work tends to show up.
If you've got a problem and you're not sure whether I'm the right person to help with it, that's a pretty good reason to have a conversation.
