About

I spent the first 20 years of my career working with a Cambridge-based, scientific nonprofit. Throughout my tenure, I provided top-notch logistics management, thoughtful content strategy, and careful budget planning. I produced events ranging from social affairs to week-long conferences delivered across the US, abroad, and online. I guided the organization through a diverse set of projects including a headquarters relocation, video production and distribution of a filmed training course, and the complete restructuring/regeneration of the organization’s complex website. I led a four-year citizen science project engaging a diverse set of participants in the scientific method. We generated a project website & newsletter, yearly in-person training programs, a research publication, a training manual, new data analysis software, and a planetarium show. Our project was honored as a “National Science Foundation Highlight.”

As a consultant, I’ve honed my ability to listen thoughtfully and quickly develop an understanding of the needs of a particular client or project.  I've managed capacity building and fundraising events from 30 to almost 1400 attendees, provided worry-free support for virtual events so that clients can focus on the content and not the technology, and strengthened teams through effective committee management.

​

For those needing assistance with the facilitation of a session or a host to provide the welcome or introductions for an event, I am happy to put my extensive performing arts background to use as an on-stage/on-camera presence.

 

Whether you have an upcoming conference, need help with a virtual or hybrid event, or are developing a new program that overreaches the capacity of your current staff, I would love to discuss how I can add structure, connection, & value to your next project.
