SafeSpace
What was happening
Ten years of experience, but the next version of the program, the fundraising story, the budget, and the operating plan were not yet tied together.
What we made
A redesigned program plan, a clear growth model, a three-year budget, a fundraising plan and donor pipeline, and updated materials, with direct work alongside leadership.
What changed
The program, the budget, and the fundraising plan now line up.

BloomOS
What was happening
Small nonprofit teams run their week across donor tools, spreadsheets, budgets, and program records that never talk to each other.
What we made
BloomOS: one place for the week, donors, grants, programs, finances, board work, and reporting. It started as the system we built to run our own nonprofit.
What changed
Now a product for nonprofit teams of 1 to 10, at bloomos.org.

Wild Wanderers
What was happening
The owner was running clients, programs, the schedule, and the business side from memory and a stack of apps.

What changed
The program, the week, and the business run from one place.

Beyond Veneer
What was happening
A growing business needed a front door that matched the quality of the work.
What we made

What changed
Clients can find, understand, and book without the back-and-forth.

Trellis and Roots and Wings
What was happening
Our own household, with school, sports, meals, money, and homeschool spread across too many apps.
What we made
Trellis, a family operating system, and Roots and Wings, a homeschool system.
What changed
Two products we build, run, and support ourselves.
