CONSULTING
Need personalized support with your project? New to the community and not sure where to start? Want some honest, no-fluff feedback before launching a program, event, or outreach strategy?
In addition to running the day-to-day operations of Congress Heights on the Rise (CHotR), I’m an award-winning community engagement, marketing, and communications professional with more than a decade of specialized experience working in and with communities east of the river — and more than 20 years of experience in operations, marketing, outreach, and event planning.
Through my consulting work, I help organizations, businesses, and project teams figure out how to connect with, communicate with, and show up for Ward 7 and Ward 8 communities in thoughtful, effective, and authentic ways.
Maybe you need someone to look at an idea before you launch it. Maybe your outreach strategy isn’t reaching the people you actually need to reach. Maybe you need help identifying community partners, making connections, or understanding the landscape east of the river. Or maybe you just need someone who knows the community to tell you, “Yeah…you might want to rethink that.” I can help with all of the above.
One important caveat: As The Advoc8te, I don’t take on projects that aren’t in the best interests of Ward 7 and Ward 8 residents and communities. That part isn’t negotiable.
Still not sure? Google me. 😂 The proof is in the search results.
Promoting, advocating for, and connecting people with Wards 7 and 8 isn’t a side project for me. It’s what I do seven days a week, 365 days a year.
