I’m a serial social entrepreneur and impact strategist with 20+ years of experience advising leaders at the intersection of philanthropy, capital strategy, and systems change.

As the Founder & CEO of làmdi, a strategy and impact consultancy, I lead a team to support CEO's, founders, donors, family offices, boards, and institutions through high-stakes transitions, including executive leadership change, board evolution, organizational restructuring, philanthropic strategy shifts, capital mobilization, and cross-sector collaboration. Our work integrates executive coaching, organizational change management, donor engagement, and impact investing strategy to align values, governance, and capital for measurable, long-term impact.

My career spans public-sector leadership, civic innovation, philanthropy, venture-backed startups, housing and real estate development, and national coalition-building. I’ve partnered with UHNW individuals, family offices, foundations, financial institutions (including banks and CDFIs), impact investors, and public agencies to design donor and capital strategies, steward complex stakeholder ecosystems, and move resources toward equity and regenerative outcomes.

I speak and advise on values-aligned leadership, philanthropic strategy, donor ecosystems, governance, systems design, and the future of capital. My work is grounded in the belief that abundance is possible when leadership is accountable, capital is aligned with values, and communities are centered in decision-making.

What I’m known for:
- Advising boards, executives, and donors during moments of complexity, growth, or transition
- Designing values-aligned philanthropic and capital strategies rooted in accountability and systems thinking to address urgent challenges and basic needs
- Strengthening executive presence, governance, and decision-making in high-pressure environments
- Bridging community wisdom, institutional power, and capital to unlock shared value

Areas of expertise include executive coaching and leadership development, executive transitions, philanthropic strategy and donor engagement, UHNW and family office advisory for community-rooted investment, capital mobilization and impact investing strategy, organizational change management, community-centered and cross-sector strategy, and systems design for equity and regenerative impact.

If you’re seeking a speaker, advisor, strategist, or philanthropic partner aligned with mission and scale, I’d welcome the conversation.
