Helping public health organizations move from complexity to clarity—and from strategy to action.

Kindling Collaborative partners with public health agencies and mission-driven organizations facing change, growth, transition, or complex strategic challenges. Engagements are tailored to the organization and can range from focused advisory or facilitation support to longer-term planning and transformation work.

What I Offer

1. Strategic Planning & Facilitation

Turn broad goals into clear priorities and actionable plans. I design and facilitate strategic planning processes, leadership discussions, retreats, and stakeholder sessions that build alignment, clarify decisions, and create a practical path forward.

2. Program & Systems Transformation

Strengthen or redesign programs and systems to meet changing needs. I help organizations assess what is working, identify gaps and opportunities, rethink structures and processes, and develop practical approaches that are sustainable over time.

3. Policy & Public Health Strategy

Bring clarity to complex policy and program questions. I provide policy analysis, strategic guidance, stakeholder assessment, executive-level synthesis, and support translating evidence and public health priorities into actionable recommendations.

4. Implementation & Technical Assistance

Move plans from paper into practice. I support organizations with implementation planning, work plans, grant and contract strategy, technical assistance approaches, partner engagement, and development of clear, usable program and policy materials.

5. Training & Capacity Building

Strengthen teams through practical, tailored learning. I design and deliver trainings, workshops, and facilitated learning sessions on topics such as policy, strategic planning, systems thinking, program implementation, and other public health priorities.

My Approach

• Collaborative: I work alongside leaders, teams, and partners to build solutions that fit their context.
• Practical: Recommendations are designed to be usable—not simply aspirational.
• Evidence-informed: Strategy is grounded in research, experience, and the realities of public health practice.
• Adaptive: Every engagement is shaped around the organization’s needs, capacity, and changing environment.

Whether you need an experienced thought partner for a defined challenge, facilitation to bring people together, or sustained support through a larger transformation, Kindling Collaborative can help you determine what comes next and move it forward.
