I support organizations, philanthropies, NGOs, non-profits, movements, and socially responsible companies to think more strategically, operate more effectively, and make a deeper impact. I’m passionate about building the infrastructure necessary for change to take root and hold.

For nearly twenty years, I have partnered with organizations to sharpen their vision and strategies, strengthen their teams, conduct research and evaluations, design programs, integrate or advance gender justice, conduct reflection and learning processes, and build the kind of organizations and networks that actually move the needle — not just on paper, but in the world.

A core part of my practice is helping organizations integrate a gender equity lens — not as an add-on, but as a foundation for effective transformative change. No matter the project, my approach is responsive, collaborative and adaptive to the context and moment.

Thematically, I've worked on a range of issues, including gender justice, reproductive justice, women's rights, climate justice, and the safety and wellbeing of human rights defenders. I am an associate at Gender at Work. Alongside my consulting work, I’m a full spectrum doula, offering non-clinical support for pregnant people, newly postpartum families and folks navigating fertility.

I've worked with nearly 30 organizations ranging from grassroots feminist funds to UN agencies to major philanthropies. These include Oxfam, UN Women, Urgent Action Fund Asia & Pacific, FRIDA | The Young Feminist Fund, Global Fund for Women, American Jewish World Service, Wellspring Philanthropic Fund, The Gates Foundation, the Friedrich Ebert Stiftung Foundation, the C&A Foundation, and many others. I did my graduate studies at Harvard, before that, I studied at Wesleyan University.

My work and research have taken me all over the world, with longer stints in Southern Africa and the Middle East.  I go by she/her/hers. More about what motivates my work here.
