Write a story that moves people.

Are you a nice human who dreams of writing and publishing stories that enact wider change? I’m a nice human who loves supporting people and nonprofits on their storytelling journey. I give each client my all. I know we’re grooving when you feel motivated and nourished by a clear vision, ample feedback, and helpful deadlines. I know we’re thriving when we both experience and feel how the stories we tell–and the stories we amplify–shape the world.

3. CanopyPartner: Inspire action across all your communications

Your nonprofit does incredible work, but your message isn't generating enough donations, engagement, and support. Time to level up your communications strategy and take your impact from uncertain to unmistakable. As a communications specialist, I guide nonprofits that are dedicated to land conservation & restoration, nature connection & access, climate solutions, and environmental justice.

Your nonprofit will benefit from:

  • Strategic narrative development that identifies your most compelling stories and translates them into educational, inspiring stories

  • Cohesive messaging and branding across all your platforms

  • Increased fundraising capacity because you built a communications strategy that aligns with the needs, concerns, and interests of your audience

  • An elevated online presence that highlights your mission, impact, and wins

This package (starting at $4,200/month) includes: 

  • Weekly strategy sessions to align narratives with upcoming campaigns, fundraising goals, and program milestones

  • A seasonal editorial calendar to organize and coordinate content

  • 1 e-newsletter template (per month) for your team to collaborate on as we draft the opening letter, program updates, program events, blogs, and calls to action

  • 10–20 social media posts that are aligned with your editorial calendar

Our four-step process:

  1. Discovery: Identify and discuss your unique stories and audience motivations. You will share your style guide, brand positioning statements, and user personas with me. If you do not have those yet, we can work together with a brand strategist first.

  2. Strategy: Develop an editorial calendar and messaging frameworks that connect your work to the values that your donors, members, and volunteers share.

  3. Implementation: Craft and distribute compelling content across all your active channels.

  4. Measurement: Monitor which stories drive the most action or engagement, and refine our approach accordingly.
