A STRATEGIC MARKETING PARTNER WHO UNDERSTANDS

Great missions deserve great marketing.

With over 15 years of experience in marketing for nonprofits, healthcare institutions, churches, and mission-driven businesses, I understand the unique challenges and opportunities these organizations face.

Throughout my career, I’ve learned that the biggest marketing challenges are rarely marketing problems alone. More often, they’re communication, alignment, and leadership challenges. That’s why my work goes beyond campaigns and content. I help organizations build marketing systems, clarify their message, and create strategies that communicate their vision to their audience.

I love this work because it allows me to help my clients reach more people and create lasting impact. When marketing is done well, it doesn’t just grow an organization. It helps advance the mission behind it.

WHY LEADERS HIRE ME

I don't just bring marketing expertise. I bring leadership experience.

Most organizations don’t need another vendor. They need someone who can help them make better decisions.

Over the past 15 years, I’ve served as a direct manager, department leader, and trusted advisor to executive teams. I’ve led communications departments, managed vendor and affiliate relationships, developed teams, and partnered with organizational leaders to navigate growth, change, and complex strategic decisions.

As a Fractional CMO, my role extends beyond campaigns and content. I help leadership teams align priorities, focus resources, simplify complexity, and build marketing systems that support long-term organizational goals.

Whether I’m advising an executive team, managing contractors, or leading a marketing department, my focus remains the same: helping organizations communicate more clearly, operate more effectively, and maximize their impact.

Mission First

Honest Leadership

I’ll tell you what I believe is best for your organization, even when it’s not the easiest answer.
