How I Work

Writing is how I make sense of complexity and help others do the same. Whether I'm crafting a grant proposal, translating research for public audiences, or shaping an organization's voice, I bring the same approach: listen closely, understand context, and write with clarity and purpose.

What I Do

01

Grant Writing & Proposals

I write grant proposals that win funding by connecting organizational impact to funder priorities. This is not just about following guidelines. It is about crafting a compelling case that makes readers want to say yes.

What this looks like:

  • Letters of inquiry that open doors
  • Full proposals with clear narratives and logical budgets
  • Case statements that articulate organizational value
  • Renewal applications that demonstrate impact
  • Corporate sponsorship pitches
Track Record: $1M+ secured through persuasive, strategic proposals
02

Strategic Messaging & Narrative

I help organizations find and refine their voice. This means understanding who you're talking to, what you're trying to accomplish, and how to frame your work in ways that resonate and inspire action.

What this looks like:

  • Organizational messaging frameworks
  • Stakeholder communications strategies
  • Key messages and talking points
  • Brand voice development and guidelines
  • Pitch decks and presentation narratives
Approach: Audience-centered framing that connects mission to impact
03

Research Translation & Science Communication

Complex research deserves to reach the people who can use it. I translate academic findings, policy analysis, and technical information into clear, engaging content that informs and empowers diverse audiences.

What this looks like:

  • Research briefs and executive summaries
  • Policy explainers for general audiences
  • Blog posts and articles from academic sources
  • Educational materials and fact sheets
  • Conference presentations and talking points
Philosophy: Accessibility without oversimplification
04

Content Strategy & Production

I develop content strategies that turn organizational expertise into consistent, valuable communication across channels. This means thinking beyond individual pieces to build systems that sustain engagement over time.

What this looks like:

  • Content calendars and editorial planning
  • Multi-channel content strategies
  • Social media content and campaigns
  • Newsletter development and email sequences
  • Webinar scripting and production
Goal: Sustainable content systems that build trust and credibility
05

Evaluation & Impact Reporting

I turn data and feedback into stories that demonstrate value. Whether for funders, boards, or internal teams, I write reports that make findings actionable and impact visible.

What this looks like:

  • Funder reports and impact updates
  • Program evaluation summaries
  • Annual reports and organizational narratives
  • Data visualization and infographics
  • Board presentations and briefings
Approach: Data-informed storytelling that centers real outcomes
06

Community-Centered Communications

The best communications start with listening. I write in ways that honor lived experience, center community voices, and build trust rather than extract stories.

What this looks like:

  • Outreach materials that meet people where they are
  • Recruitment content for research and programs
  • Communications that reflect community input
  • Culturally responsive messaging
  • Accessible, plain-language content
Foundation: Writing that builds trust, not just awareness

Areas of Focus

I'm drawn to work that sits at the intersection of health, equity, and public understanding. These are the areas where I bring the deepest context and care.
