EXPLORE MY
OFFERINGS

With 20+ years of experience in queer arts ecosystems, I support organizations, foundations, collectives, and creative teams in building culture, strengthening programs, and telling stories that matter. My consulting practice centers care, clarity, strategy, and the lived expertise of artists and cultural workers.

Grant Workshops

I lead practical, artist-centered grant workshops that demystify the funding process and empower participants to write clear, compelling applications. My approach breaks grants into simple, actionable steps while building confidence, strengthening narrative and budgeting skills, and supporting long-term empowerment within arts funding systems.
