Here To Help

After 12 years at America’s leading nonprofit developer for the arts, working with foundations, organizations, and communities all over the country, I’m now offering my experience and skill as a senior consultant.

A life-long learner with a cognitive science degree, I am happiest when learning in community with others.

I’m glad you’ve found me.

Translating ideas into action

I love developing learning tools and opportunities that guide groups through sustainable and equitable growth. A seasoned facilitator and coach, I bring teams together to deliver original content through workshops and one on one consultations. 

Here’s what I do

    • Concept development

    • Instructional design

    • Workshop facilitation

    • Impact evaluation

    • Space Assessment

    • Concept Refinement

    • Communication Strategy

    • Fundraising Strategy

    • Outreach Design

    • Facilitation

    • Partnership Formation

  • Anna and her team have created a program that exemplifies today's best practices for guiding organizations as they seek to translate their big ideas for space into manageable paths into the future.

  • Anna is particularly adept at creating systems that demystify complex ideas and help teams take the next steps on their own. Anna loves learning herself so sharing information is one of her huge strengths, and it shows in her passion for this work.

    former Artspace Senior Vice President

  • Even though we hadn't met previously, working with Anna felt like working with an old friend. Her calm and welcoming demeanor naturally encouraged participation from our whole group. Anna's intelligence and experience were grounded in a kindness that helped everyone around her grow.
