Maroon Advisory
Let’s turn ambitious ideas into sustainable work.
I partner with people, not just organizations.
Some of you are leading meaningful work inside large organizations, navigating complexity without a clear roadmap. Some of you have stepped out on your own, building something from the ground up. Others are in transition, deciding what comes next after a role or chapter has ended.
Different moments. One common challenge: turning ambitious ideas into sustainable work.
That’s the question I’ve spent my career studying, building around, and living.
Sometimes that means partnering directly with one leader. Sometimes it means working alongside an organization in the middle of change — a team that’s been restructured, a function that’s being built or redefined, or a moment when trust has to come back before strategy can be realized.

What I Do.
Fractional & Interim Executive Roles
You need executive-level leadership, strategy, operations, or transformation, without a full-time search.
Founder & Business Advisory
You’re leading a founder-built business and want a strategic thought partner inside it — someone to pressure-test your service lines, explore what’s next, and hear what your team can’t say to you directly.
Research
You’re writing research and would value a co-author who can add practitioner depth and real-world grounding.
Writing
You’re working on an op-ed, board memo, or strategy narrative and want help sharpening it.

Nanny’s Table
You’re carrying equity work, inside an institution or out on your own, and you need a space outside of work. Nanny’s Table is a small quarterly circle of leaders convened to think, strategize, and build together. Offered at no cost. Some tables should simply be open. Forthcoming in 2027.

About the name
Maroon Advisory
Strategy with roots.
The Maroons taught me my first lesson in health systems: care doesn’t begin with institutions. It begins with people who choose to show up for one another.
My practice is named after the Maroons of my family’s home country, Jamaica — communities built on resourcefulness and the confidence to chart their own course without asking permission. Their most celebrated leader, Nanny of the Maroons, united scattered communities and led with such skill that the British Empire ultimately negotiated a lasting peace with her people. Today, she remains Jamaica’s only female National Hero.
In my family, her story was never simply history. It was how we understood leadership: build what doesn’t exist. Create order where others see obstacles. And never build alone.
Maroon Advisory is that instinct, put to work.
