empowering youth & communities

through impactful program design

expert consulting for designing and improving youth programs

Effective youth engagement requires intentional planning, inclusive decision-making, and leadership development strategies that prioritize young people’s voices. I specialize in helping organizations design and implement impactful out-of-school time programs, leadership training academies, and advisory councils that empower youth to lead and shape their communities.

out-of-school time (OST) program planning & design

I work with schools, nonprofits, and community organizations to develop high-quality, equity-centered out-of-school time (OST) programs that are engaging, sustainable, and tailored to the needs of young people. From curriculum development to staff training and evaluation frameworks, I help you build programs that create real impact.

integrating youth into decision-making

Youth are not just participants—they are leaders. I guide organizations in structuring meaningful youth-adult partnerships, ensuring that young people have a say in shaping policies, initiatives, and programs that affect them. This may include developing youth advisory councils, but my approach to this work means I will challenge clients to collaborate with young people through existing structures.
