Executive Coaching & Strategic Counsel
Your leadership path is too important to navigate alone.
Walk alongside a seasoned advisor who brings clarity, candor, and strategic care to every step of the journey.
For changemakers, founders & philanthropists
Trusted counsel for those forging fresh pathways toward justice.
I draw on two decades as a founder, strategist, advocate, and grantmaker to serve as a steady thought partner to leaders of mission-driven organizations and to individuals investing personal wealth in the public good.
My attuned approach balances emotional intelligence with hard-won strategic experience. The result is counsel that is grounded, trustworthy, and built for the high-stakes moment you are in.

Meet Jill
I know social change work from nearly every angle and entry point.
For two decades I founded and scaled mission-driven organizations, built diverse and distributed teams, stewarded major funding, and partnered with funders on grantmaking strategy and movement-level planning.
Today, as a certified executive coach and strategic advisor, I work with leaders ready to stretch and grow — evolving not only their institutions, but themselves.
In their words
Changemakers I’ve worked alongside
“Jill is the most wise and wonderful ally and human to have in your corner as you try something new. 20/10 recommend. She will hold you with kindness and love and is also so tactical and strategic and has LIVED so much of this experience that she can see (and ask/push on) the things that you might have deprioritized for yourself.”
Tamara Chao
President & Executive Director, Asian Pacific Fund
“I now have actionable plans and strategies around budget and fundraising that are grounded in my organizational and personal values, relatively straightforward, and broadly applicable. I feel like I took a 201 class in a language I’ve been vaguely trying to learn by osmosis for years.”
Phoebe Jane
Co-Executive Director, Reprocare
“Jill’s insightful questions and reflections unraveled intellectual and emotional knots within me, enabling me to confidently take steps towards a more meaningful career and more vibrant life.”
