I provide straightforward, practical strategies, tools, and capacity so nonprofits and their funders are able to track impact and tell compelling and powerful impact stories.
I have transformed traditional program evaluation into a first-of-its-kind strategy and toolbox which puts tracking and using impact within reach of social sector partners.
The ImpactStory™ Strategy emerged from years of learning partnerships with clients and innovators in the sector. I am grateful to every single one.

“I just want to express that the clarity and soundness of reasoning that your map/documents brought to our work has been TRANSFORMATIONAL as in it literally has reframed some of the work that development is doing – we are no longer being treated as unhelpful antagonists by development, and in large part the way your work encapsulated ours from a big-picture perspective helped us get there! Thank you thank you!“

“Our team didn’t have the capacity to create the impact measurement tool without the help of Partnerships for Strategic Impact. The Strategic Impact Map helped our stakeholders understand our focus areas and what evidence-based approaches help move the needle. Our stakeholders are looking forward to the next phases of the project.“
