I had the pleasure of working with Mark during a particularly challenging organizational budgeting process at Young Playwrights' Theater. Mark was an incredible thought partner throughout this process -- insightful, knowledgeable, passionate, and responsive to our evolving needs. I highly recommend his services!
We brought in Mark to support financial analysis, projections, and complex scenario planning during a time of complexity and uncertainty. He was able to provide clear-eyed recommendations that cut through the noise and helped us make meaningful improvements to our financial position and systems in a short period of time.

Small organizations often grow faster than their systems. This creates bottlenecks, duplication, and day-to-day friction. I help teams untangle operational clutter by clarifying responsibilities, simplifying workflows, and putting predictable processes in place. The goal isn’t bureaucracy, it’s a smoother, more reliable operation. I'll help you create a structure where people know what to do, information moves cleanly, and the organization can run without constant emergencies.
Teams work better when expectations are clear, communication is steady, and people know how their work connects to the larger goals. I help organizations strengthen their leadership practices by establishing simple systems for goal-setting, feedback, accountability, and team communication. This isn’t about jargon or corporate programs. I
