I help private foundations give with precision by bringing senior-level program operations experience without the cost or commitment of a full-time hire.
If your foundation is giving $150,000+ annually, has limited staff, and is struggling to keep up with board expectations, grant compliance requirements, or grantee management, I've been exactly where you are.
My Background
Managed millions in annual grantmaking for hundreds of scholarship recipients, annually
Advised on multi-million dollar endowment strategies
Served on allocation committees managing millions in giving
Built operational systems that scaled giving by 20%+
Achieved 100% improvement in donor retention
14+ years of experience in nonprofit and philanthropic grantmaking and operations
What Makes Keystone Different
Most foundation consultants give you strategy decks and walk away. I stay. I don't just advise on what you should do — I help you build the systems and run the operations that make it actually work.
Most foundation consultants come from one side of philanthropy. I've been on both. I know what funders need to see in a proposal, and I know what nonprofits can realistically deliver. That dual perspective means I can help you design a grantmaking process that works for everyone.
Most importantly: I've done this work at scale. I haven't just advised on it — I managed millions in grants, hundreds of scholarship recipients and nonprofit grantees, directed compliance for programs, and built the infrastructure that let a foundation scale giving.
Let's Talk
If your foundation is overwhelmed, under-resourced, or unsure how to prove your impact to your board, you're not alone, and you don't have to figure this out by yourself.
