Supporting Organizations Through Every Stage of the Grant Process
Every organization has a unique mission, and every funding opportunity comes with its own requirements. Whether you're pursuing your first grant or managing an existing award, I offer practical support tailored to your organization's needs.
I work with nonprofits and mission-driven organizations across northern Middle Tennessee and south-central Kentucky, helping connect vision with resources that strengthen communities and improve lives.
Grant Research & Funding Strategy
Identifying the right opportunity is just as important as writing the proposal itself.
Services may include:
- Prospect research
- Federal, state, foundation, and corporate grant identification
- Funding calendars and grant planning
- Review of eligibility requirements
- Matching opportunities to organizational priorities
My goal is to help organizations focus their time and energy on opportunities that align with their mission and have the greatest potential for success.
Grant Writing & Proposal Development
Strong proposals tell a compelling story while clearly demonstrating need, impact, and alignment with funder priorities.
Services may include:
- Narrative development
- Application preparation
- Coordination of supporting documents
- Budget collaboration
- Review and editing
- Proposal submission support
Each proposal is approached thoughtfully and tailored to the unique strengths and vision of the organization.
Post-Award Support
Receiving an award is only the beginning. Good stewardship helps build trust with funders and positions organizations for future opportunities.
Services may include:
- Progress and performance reports
- Grant compliance support
- Documentation and recordkeeping assistance
- Monitoring deadlines and requirements
- Assistance preparing continuation applications
I believe responsible stewardship is one of the best ways to honor both the funder's investment and the community being served.
A Partnership Approach
To me, grant writing is more than a transaction. My goal is to come alongside organizations as a trusted partner—listening to your vision, understanding your mission, and helping connect your work with the resources needed to expand your impact.
Because this is where I live and work, supporting organizations that strengthen our communities is personal.
Areas of Interest
I enjoy supporting organizations working in:
- Mental Health
- Recovery and Substance Use Services
- Children and Families
- Rural Health
- Public Health & Safety
- Community Development
While these are areas of particular interest, I'm always happy to explore opportunities that strengthen communities and improve quality of life.
