Consulting project manager, soon to based in The Netherlands.
When consulting for my clients, I bring a wide range of experience to the table. My experience as a project/program manager, producer, content strategist and designer makes me a great fit for small organizations where it’s useful to wear multiple hats and step in to help where needed.
Before focusing my work on the non-profit sector, I worked as a user experience designer and project manager for digital agencies as well as for my own consulting business. Starting as a print designer out of college, I worked to constantly expand my skills and have served my clients as a program manager, event planner, information architect, content strategist, and throughout my career, project manager.
I’m very experienced managing multiple concurrent projects, and have developed my proactive communication skills working with clients, coordinating teams, managing a non-profit program, planning events, and producing webinars. In August of 2026 I will be relocating to the Netherlands, and look forward to working with clients there in the future.
