What past clients have to say...
"The Institute for Sustainable Communities had the pleasure of working with Felicia to support the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation's Health and Climate Solutions program, which we serve as the National Program Office for. We were interested in the program grantees receiving an equity-centered narrative communications frame and applying that frame to record the story of their projects in an oral storytelling format. The resulting products were moving, poignant, high quality recorded stories of the work on the ground, told by the grantees. Felicia brought an incredible lens to this work and produced products that exceeded our expectations. The grantees had the opportunity to listen to each other's stories and it created a point of connection and unity to this program and commitment to further this work. Thank you!"

"At Hand in Hand, we hired Felicia to co-facilitate and develop the curriculum for a storytelling training for organizers and activists. Felicia brought extraordinary skill, creativity, humor, kindness, and consistency to our work together. Working on a tight deadline, she crafted a creative and engaging training tailored to our needs and vision, and tackled the challenge of developing a curriculum accessible to a very diverse set of participants. The training was a huge success, and participant feedback highlighted the impact of Felicia's fabulous, fun, and vulnerable facilitation. One participant, a community organizer with decades of experience, shared that they had been to countless trainings, but this one stood out as having some of the best and most visionary facilitation and instruction. I agree! We were unbelievably lucky to get to work with Felicia on this project and I'm excited to find opportunities to continue to work with her in the future."
