🏛️ Civic Data and Digital Communities That Work for People

Whether you’re on a city council, civic commission, foundation board, or leading a community nonprofit — you’re building change, and that starts with people, information, and connection.

You face tough questions like:

  • What’s shifting in our neighborhoods?
  • Who’s being served — and who’s being missed?
  • How do we build and sustain real community in a hybrid world?

That’s where I come in.


💡 What We Can Do Together

I help leaders, nonprofits, and community builders:

  • Ask sharper questions and get better data
  • Visualize complex issues in ways real people understand
  • Build and sustain online community infrastructure
  • Strengthen collaboration across hybrid or dispersed teams

Projects I support include:

  • Health equity dashboards
  • Housing and neighborhood change studies
  • Civic engagement tracking
  • Program evaluations and impact reporting
  • Launching or revitalizing online community spaces

🌐 New Offering: Building Online Communities

Many established civic groups and nonprofits rely on Facebook, email, or in-person meetings alone — but often need a better, more organized digital presence to engage members, partners, or the public.

Inspired by my graduate work in Technologies of Community, I now offer:

  • Strategic planning for online community building
  • Custom “starter kits” for tools like Mighty Networks, Slack, or SharePoint
  • Moderation, onboarding, and sustainability playbooks
  • Hands-on help setting up and launching your space

🛠️ It’s not just about technology. It’s about people, trust, and shared purpose.
Let’s build something durable — and welcoming.
