A Partner Who Gets the Journey
I’m Kerri, the Nonprofit Futurist. I partner with nonprofit leaders ready to move—from crisis to clarity. Whether you’re stabilizing funding, building board trust, or scaling with intention, I’m your thought partner—someone who sees your mission and your potential. Leveraging my experience leading national teams and organizations, I help leaders reconnect with the vision that fuels their work. And at the heart of it all is community: the grounding force behind how I lead—with conviction, care, and clarity.Past clients Include
