I am an interdisciplinary artist, curator, and cultural strategist with more than 25 years of experience supporting nonprofits, cultural organizations, and public institutions at the intersection of art, equity, and institutional transformation. My consulting practice helps organizations design and implement ethical, community-centered systems that move beyond performative change toward lasting structural impact.

Grounded in both creative practice and executive leadership, I bring deep expertise in equity-centered planning, trauma-informed frameworks, and culturally responsive strategy. I have worked extensively within the philanthropic and public sectors, partnering with organizations to strengthen grantmaking practices, deepen community engagement, and align values with sustainable operations.

My work spans long-term organizational planning, community-engaged program design, and short-term initiatives such as convenings, exhibitions, and special events. Across all engagements, I center accountability, transparency, and care—recognizing that cultural institutions carry responsibility to the communities they serve.
