Nonprofit Coaching
With over 10 years experience in nonprofit management coupled with my research background in nonprofits and inclusion, I bring a unique perspective to advance nonprofit goals. My areas of expertise are: program development and implementation; curriculum design; program evaluation; data collection and analysis (surveys, interviews, focus groups); impact analysis; team building; recruitment and retention; and the integration of art and wellness programs.
Foster Adoption Homeless Youth Anti-Oppression Trainings
The foster, adoption, homeless youth (FAHY) is a population that I research and I am a member of this community. I have developed two trainings that draws from a research, trauma, and oppression-informed approach: 1) Understanding FAYH stigma and 2) Responding to FAYH stigma. The training is available online and in-person. It is six hours total and engages an artistic and reflexive approach to offer a deeper understanding of FAYH realities as it concerns bullying, shame, secrecy, microaggressions, and negative behavior to effectively parent or serve children who pertain to these communities.
Guest Speaker
I am a first-generation college graduate and a former foster and homeless youth with a moving story to tell that motivates and inspires youth and young adults. I welcome opportunities to serve as a guest speaker for graduating high school students or first-generation college students, offering talks on topics that resonate with and reflect the lived experiences of our community.
Inclusion Evaluation
This evaluation is designed for employers seeking to assess and strengthen inclusivity within their organization. It includes a tailored survey that generates an Inclusion Score, accompanied by a comprehensive report highlighting key strengths and areas for growth. The process is scalable, meaning that full participation is not required for larger organizations—representative sampling can still yield meaningful insights. This tool supports leaders committed to fostering equity, belonging, and workplace accountability.
Independent Research
I offer independent research services for organization and city leaders seeking data-driven insights to inform strategy, advocacy, or program development. Whether you need support evaluating a program, exploring a specific population or issue, or generating knowledge to drive impact, I deliver rigorous, accessible findings and reports tailored to your goals. I am especially interested in projects that seek to measure inclusion and related social constructs. Here is an example of a research study I conducted where I was contracted to measure the state of immigrant inclusion in Florida.
