Rue Pigalle - Luxury Travel & Membership Community
The founder of a small but influential community of patrons of artisanal craft who travel the world needed to scale to a sustainable size—large enough to create impact without losing the personal and expert experience it provided to members. We developed a strategic and operational plan to achieve this, while also helping embed a clear social enterprise purpose into the business.
Fogo Island Workshops - Furniture & Textile Design
A project to furnish the famous Fogo Island Inn evolved into a social enterprise designed to foster economic resilience, preserve Newfoundland's design culture, and support the nonprofit Shorefast Foundation. After ten years, the business reached an inflection point and required transformation to survive. I developed strategic and operational plans, built business infrastructure, and created product, distribution, and partnership roadmaps.
Rainbow Railroad - Nonprofit
Multiple strategic plans over a decade helped grow the organization from a grassroots group into the world’s leading NGO of its kind. Exponential growth and constantly changing pathways to safety required continuous adaptation of funding strategies, ways to assist LGBTQ+ people and organizational governance. We transitioned from an operational board to a governance model on both sides of the border while maintaining focus on impact.
