I help mission-driven organizations build trusted brands, grow audiences, solve operational challenges, and find sustainable revenue.

I've spent 20 years building audiences and revenue in publishing, nonprofit, and wellness spaces. That includes magazines, national nonprofits, a statewide newsroom, and two businesses I owned myself.

Most recently I was CEO of VTDigger, Vermont's statewide nonprofit newsroom, where I led a team of 30 serving more than 500,000 monthly readers and 9,000 contributing members.

What I can help with:

  • Organizational strategy
  • Ad sales & sponsorship strategy — pricing, pitch decks, prospecting, and renewal strategy
  • Earned revenue strategy
  • Membership & fundraising strategy
  • Editorial strategy
  • Audience growth
  • Newsletter strategy
  • Marketing strategy

Right now I'm doing two things: consulting and talking with teams about fractional and full-time roles where I can make a meaningful difference in advancing their mission. I'm available for short- and medium-term consulting engagements. If you need a quick consult on a discrete issue — like reviewing your ad sales pitch before a renewal cycle, or a second opinion on a newsletter strategy — I'm available to book hourly.
