Good ideas become more powerful when we build them together.

My professional work sits at the intersection of strategy, entrepreneurship, economic development, destination development and community building.

Over the course of my career, I've worked with entrepreneurs, organizations, governments and communities to move from ideas and opportunities to strategies that can actually be implemented.

Today, I selectively collaborate with organizations and leaders who are building something, navigating change or trying to figure out what comes next.

Strategy & Advisory

Sometimes you don't need another lengthy report. You need someone who can quickly understand the situation, ask the right questions, identify the opportunity and help determine the next move.

I provide strategic advisory support in areas including economic and destination development, entrepreneurship, organizational and business growth, program development, funding strategy and community initiatives.

Engagements can range from focused strategy sessions to more substantial advisory projects.

Facilitation & Workshops

I design and facilitate practical sessions that help people move from conversation to action.

Topics can include entrepreneurship, strategic planning, business growth, nonprofit development, funding readiness, leadership and economic or destination development.

Sessions can be customized for organizations, teams, entrepreneurs and community groups.

Speaking & Conversations

I enjoy conversations about the ideas I'm exploring through this site—particularly the relationship between people, place, entrepreneurship and economic development.

I'm available for panels, interviews, conferences, community conversations and speaking engagements where my experience or perspective can contribute something useful.

Something Else?

Some of the most interesting opportunities don't fit neatly into a service category.

If you're developing an initiative, exploring an idea, looking for a strategic perspective or think there may be an interesting reason for us to collaborate, I'd be happy to hear about it.

Let's start a conversation.
