Frequently Asked Questions

  • I partner with nonprofits, arts and cultural institutions, educational organizations, foundations, and community-based initiatives—especially those interested in cultivating concrete steps toward connection.

    I love working with creative people, wherever you are. Regardless of the field you’re working in, inclusion is a radical act of creativity.

  • You don’t need to know just yet—turns out I’m pretty good at helping with this part! I tailor every engagement to your goals, team capacity, and timeline. Whether it’s a one-off training, a targeted strategy session, or a deeper collaboration for lasting change, we'll find a balance that fits.

  • I offer sliding scale pricing to keep this work accessible to community-driven organizations of all sizes. My standard rates reflect the depth of expertise, care, and impact I bring—but if cost is a barrier, reach out and we can explore an access rate that works for us both. Don’t let “we didn’t ask” be the reason it doesn’t work out!

  • Start by dropping me a line through the Contact page—just a taste about what you're working on or curious about. No pressure, no polished pitch needed.

    After that, if I think I can help, I reach out about scheduling a brief, confidential call to talk it through—whether you’ve got a clear vision or just a pile of questions, we’ll figure it out together.

    After that, I’ll send over a proposal based on what we discussed. We can finesse until we’ve found what works, then I’ll draft a contract to finalize the spot in my schedule.

Why Work with Me?

  • Community-first, relationship-driven.

    I work best with people who care not just about what they do, but how it lands with the communities they serve.

  • I’ve been around—and I get context.

    From rural libraries to major cultural institutions to scrappy grassroots orgs, I know that good access work looks different in different places.

  • Facilitative, not prescriptive.

    I don’t show up with one “right answer.” I bring structure, insight, and experience to help your people make better decisions together.

  • Organized, clear, and human.

    Expect a working relationship that’s thoughtful, communicative, and flexible—serious about the work without taking itself too seriously.
