Purpose-Driven
Marketing That Creates
Real Impact

Let’s be real: running a mission-driven business or nonprofit is no small feat.

You're juggling a million priorities, often with a small team, limited resources, and a heart that’s fully invested.

Sound Familiar?

  • You’re overflowing with stories and impact but unsure how to share them with the right audience.

  • You’ve got passion and purpose
    but not enough hours in the day to plan your next campaign or write that email series.

  • Your budget doesn’t allow for a full-time marketing team
    but hiring one person to “do it all” feels unsustainable.

That’s Where I Come In

You don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to amplify your brand so you can stay focused on the work only you can do.

The report features a large orange dollar sign with '4.5M' written beside it, indicating funds raised, and includes a bar graph showing years 2020 to 2024 with increasing amounts. The image also contains a section titled 'Funds raised' detailing that the foundation gathered $45 million in grants and donations in 2024, supporting projects and farms across the country.

Storytelling That Sparks Action

Whether it’s your origin story, a donor update, or a behind-the-scenes social post, I turn your impact into words that move people to care — and act.

I offer retainer packages that scale with your needs — so you get consistent, high-quality marketing support without the pressure of a full-time hire.

“I've worked with Kayla in multiple roles over many years, from FTE to contract, from customer care to EA to marketing to community management. While she is highly competent in all these areas, what stands out most to me about Kayla is her positive contribution to culture in EVERY environment in which I've had the honor of working with her.

Kayla is detail-oriented, organized, and meticulous in her work, but also highly creative and grasps the larger picture and strategy (often positively contributing to that, too!), which drives an enormous amount of value.”
