About

I'm based in Portland, Oregon, and I work alongside community health centers to provide structured, thoughtful support across the full range of federal grant work - from building the foundation your organization needs to compete for funding, to strategy and hands-on support through SAC and other federal opportunities.

My approach starts with understanding your health center, including how your programs work, what your team is carrying, and what you're building for your community. From there, I help bring clarity to complex requirements - whether that means strengthening the systems and readiness a strong application depends on, or developing grant proposals in collaboration with your internal teams.

For the last decade, I’ve worked across nonprofit and academic settings, including libraries, higher education, and community health centers, with experience in both in-house grant writing and consulting for FQHCs. That mix has shaped a practical, detail-oriented approach that’s rooted in how organizations actually function day to day.

I hold a Master’s in Library Science focused on research design, and I’m PMP certified. That training shows up in my work through structure, careful thinking, and an emphasis on clear, usable information.

Curiosity is at the center of how I work. I want to understand what you’re building and why it matters, and help translate that into applications that feel aligned with your community impact. Outside of work, that same curiosity shows up in birding, biking, and exploring new places around Portland and beyond!

If you’re looking for a collaborative partner to support your grant work, I’d love to connect.
