I used to fund my nonprofit AND my for-profit business completely out of my own pocket.
Not because I didn't have a vision.
Not because my work wasn't worthy of funding.
But because I had no idea how to write a grant or even where to find one.
I was doing what so many of us do: pouring our own money, time, and energy into a mission we believed in, with no roadmap for how to get the financial support we deserved.
Then everything changed.
I learned the process. I mastered the craft. And since 2019, I helped manage and secure over $8 million in funding across various organizations.
$8 million starting from someone who once didn't know where to begin.
Now I'm on a mission to make sure no other nonprofit leader, community organizer, or visionary has to figure this out the hard way.
