I am committed to helping museums and nonprofits plan for—and create—their preferred future. Through my consulting practice I strive to create a culture of futures thinking to improve organizations’ relevance, revenue, impact, and innovation.
My values and services include:
Strategic thinking
I am passionate about helping organizations utilize futures thinking in their daily operations and long-term planning. I work closely with my clients to develop customized solutions to meet their unique needs and situations. My years of experience in the museum and grantmaking field help me provide practical and visionary strategic, fundraising, and program plans.

Inclusion and access
People of all abilities and backgrounds should feel welcome and comfortable in museums and other public spaces. As Accessibility Coordinator, I have managed an IMLS-funded project to help rebuild a children’s museum and zoo to be a welcoming place for people with disabilities. I am eager to assist organizations in achieving inclusion through planning, program design and implementation, assessment, and grant writing services.
Life-long learning
As someone who continues to explore and question what the future will bring, I strongly believe we never stop learning. It is critical for professionals to improve their skills and plan more effectively for future change. I offer customized foresight/futures training, workshops and one-on-one consultations.
