Consultations

“Emilly helped me adjust to my early career in Portland and gave me tools to help me survive young adulthood, especially as a first-gen professional. I felt like I could be honest about what I was struggling with, and she referred me to plenty of resources and would coach me on how to plan for my goals, whether related to my creative practice, job, or personal finances. With many thanks to Emilly, she kept me accountable and helped me to land interviews and ultimately a new role! I learned a lot, feel more confident, and feel like a more functional human being equipped with the tools to chart a successful future for myself.”

Emilly has the pulse on the local arts and cultural scenes. Our project was a storytelling production. It only took one phone call for her to grasp the concept and she knew what elements we needed to consider in order to provide a meaningful experience for our storytellers and story listeners. Her connections opened doors for us to engage people in our work who previously did not know much about us, and that made her and services unique. She also produced an elegant storytelling brochure for our event, while easily incorporating our organization’s brand and marketing requirements. She has extraordinary organizational skills that make everyone else’s tasks easier. It is such a pleasure to work with her.

—Roberto Franco, former Director of the Latino Partnership Program at Oregon Community Foundation
