Support for You
Many government staff and leaders who want to advance equity do not have the support to reflect, strategize, grow skills, or innovate. How can you leverage your role and positionality to move equity goals forward?
Many CBO and nonprofit staff and leaders have actionable equity strategies without adequate resources, technical guidance, and recognition for their expertise. How can you covey community needs and vision so decision-makers will listen?
I provide confidential, tailored and respectful mentoring to support all career stages and roles.
Please schedule an introductory complimentary meeting - you deserve it and I appreciate the opportunity to learn about your work and goals.
My Background
I have decades of experience co-leading social and environmental change and equity and inclusion initiatives through multiracial coalitions, cross-sector collaboratives, in nonprofits and government, & with businesses.
Over the last decade I have played pivotal roles at the intersection of equity and climate resilience, working for and in collaboration with Community-Based Organizations. My approaches to operationalize equity in community-serving government programs have been replicated throughout California.
