Strategic Advising

As a current business owner, former nonprofit 501(c)(3) and 501(c)(4) Executive Director, educational district policy maker, and political action committee Founder and President, I bring innovative, comprehensive solutions for how to design, build, and grow all aspects of private businesses, nonprofits, governmental and political organizations.

Communications, Branding, & Strategic Messaging

As an award-winning writer and speechmaker and skilled communications leader, I have advised organizations and leaders on social media strategy, crisis communications, and strategic branding. Built from my own diverse life experiences and background in psychology, I deliver clear, impactful, and resonant messaging that packs a punch and moves organizations forward.

Leadership & Political Coaching

From private and nonprofit executives to political candidates and elected officials, leaders in diverse sectors have relied on me for strategic advice, coaching, and guidance. I approach coaching with a people-centered approach informed by over two decades of professional experience in local, state, national, and international organizations.

Fundraising & Development

On behalf of nonprofits and community organizations, I have individually raised over $2 million and have been part of collective teams that have raised over $15 million in development efforts. From the pitch to the close, my fundraising knowhow steers organizations to increased resources and development success.

Operations & Program Management

From managing an international business to serving as a national nonprofit programs director, my leadership has consistently delivered increased revenue and high program satisfaction. I provide expert advice on human resources, governance, budget, strategy, and resource management.

About Me

With over two decades of experience working with local, state, national, and international organizations in the fields of consulting, nonprofit/community, political/policy, commerce/export, and education, I have come to believe that the most important values in professional life are doing things the right way and treating others well. Leadership that spreads love is my passion - and I believe it can be spread with integrity, efficiency, strong design, and informed by diverse community perspectives.

Based on the West Coast, I received my Doctorate in Educational Leadership from Loyola Marymount University with other degrees/certificates from Seoul National University, Yonsei University Korean Language Institute, University of Nevada-Las Vegas, and University of Louisville. I am an avid lover of CrossFit, live music, the Lakers and Dodgers, and my cat, Soo Soo.
