Weaving words.

Connecting people.

Aligning purpose.

I help nonprofits, foundations, and authors find clarity and connection in their work. My consulting services span philanthropic strategy, nonprofit leadership support, and strategic meeting design + facilitation; my writing and editing services strengthen stories through thoughtful copywriting and copyediting. I see this work as deeply relational, and believe collaboration creates stronger communication. By centering our shared humanity in any work, we can bring people, words, and purpose into alignment.

Why “Textus Collective”?

The Latin word “textus” means woven or web, a framework, a connection. (And because early books were bound stacks of woven materials, it is also the root of the word “text” in English today.) As a word nerd with a mental Rolodex that’s always spinning and weaving across people and ideas, what better way to tie the threads of my work together?

I believe in the power of collaboration and collective action. “Small is all,” said adrienne marie brown, but look at how large a murmuration can be when thousands of small actions move together. The “collective” refers to this shared learning and shared work; though I work in partnership with many organizations and consultants, I am technically a solo practitioner.
