Services

1. Workforce Analysis & Talent Pathways

Building a resilient workforce requires clear, data-driven alignment between education and industry. I help clients map regional opportunities and design practical talent pipelines.

  • Advanced manufacturing and specialized industry sector landscape analysis.
  • Strategic implementation plans connecting K-12, community colleges, and trade programs to employers.
  • Alignment of workforce strategies with regional economic development goals.

2. Program Development & Grant Evaluation

An outside perspective ensures your programs achieve their intended outcomes and secure critical funding. I support the entire life cycle of educational and grant-funded initiatives.

  • Comprehensive program evaluation frameworks and data coaching.
  • High-level grant writing and strategic fundraising design (NSF, federal, and private foundations).
  • Multi-disciplinary STEM framework design and implementation training.

3. Coalition Building & Strategic Planning

True impact requires sustainable partnerships, but navigating overlapping regional interests can be challenging. I act as an expert third-party facilitator to help distinct groups find a common language.

  • Strategic planning and long-term vision mapping for non-profits and educational boards.
  • Cross-agency and public-private partnership facilitation.
  • Ecosystem design—bringing together labor, commerce, education, and community stakeholders.

4. Keynotes & Professional Development

I deliver content-driven, engaging presentations and workshops for state and national conferences, school districts, and executive teams. Key topics include:

  • The cross-section of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and modern education.
  • The financial and societal impacts of workforce policy.
  • Designing fully integrated, multidisciplinary STEM learning experiences.
