Federal Reviewer Information

​My academic background includes an MS in Folklore Studies from the University of Oregon (2012) where I was an integral part of the creation of the Oregon Folklife Network and the revival of Oregon's TAP Program while a Graduate Research Fellow. My other degrees are an M. Ed and a Minor in Native American Studies (Southern Oregon University) and a BS in Elementary Education with a Minor in Art History (University of Wisconsin-Madison). 

Professionally, I currently work in the development field for a nonprofit performing arts organization--Eugene Opera. Through my nonprofit consulting business, I have worked with multiple performing arts organizations (dance, visual arts, film, music and  performance/production projects) as well as with a local, historic, nonprofit performance venue.

I was recently appointed Adjunct Faculty at The Falmouth Institute and will be training Tribal professionals about non-federal grant writing to private and public foundations through their certification programs. This will include discussion of foundations with an arts and culture focus.

I have federal grant reviewing experience through the National Endowment for the Arts (2020) and the Administration for Native Americans (2014-18). While a partner at Gray Sage Consulting, multiple federal grant submissions from the Department of Justice were awarded to the Tribes we served.

A list of federal, public and private grant awards I have submitted (primary writer or collaborative team approach) can be found here: https://www.fourwindseducationalconsulting.org/foundation-awards.html .
