Founder of AH HA Solutions and a systems-level leader with 15+ years driving organizational transformation in housing, homelessness, and human services — now extending that work into AI product development through LuminousPath.
AH HA Solutions was founded on a simple belief: the right systems, led by the right people, change lives. After 15+ years in the trenches of nonprofit leadership — building teams, securing funding, and redesigning broken systems — I started this firm to bring that same intentionality to organizations ready to grow.
My work sits at the intersection of strategy and execution. I don’t just advise — I build alongside you. Whether it’s redesigning how your organization tracks outcomes, securing a major government contract, or coaching your leadership team through a transition, the goal is always the same: durable impact.
I’ve led a 16-person team including four program managers, managed a $3M operating budget, negotiated a $1.8M contract with the State of Texas, and spearheaded a Coordinated Entry redesign that measurably improved outcomes for people experiencing homelessness.
In addition to human services leadership, I bring 15 years of enterprise software management experience and direct product development background working with software companies. That combination — knowing how mission-driven organizations work and knowing how software systems are built — drives the second track of this practice: developing AI-powered products for education and the nonprofit sector.
I’m not looking for organizations that want to maintain the status quo. I’m looking for leaders who are ready to solve the right problems — and build something worth sustaining.
LuminousPath did not start with a market analysis. It started with a family.
I am Autistic, have ADHD, and am dyslexic. My wife Misty — LuminousPath’s pedagogical lead and a specialist educator with 30 years of experience working with neurodivergent learners — has ADHD. We are also parents of neurodivergent children. Between us we have navigated every dimension of the neurodivergent experience: as students, as parents, as professionals, and as people building lives in systems that were not designed with us in mind.
When we looked at the support available to neurodivergent college students — limited, stigmatized, dependent on finding the right person, unavailable at midnight before an exam — we did not see a market gap. We saw our family. We saw ourselves.
LuminousPath is built for us, by us. That is not a marketing position. It is the reason this platform exists.
15+ years of inside-out knowledge across nonprofit leadership, housing systems, data infrastructure, government partnerships, and software product development.
