Projects
No two collaborations are alike. Each story here is a glimpse into how I work, and more importantly, how people have found new ways to connect, adapt, and move forward together. You’ll find examples from my work with local governments, community networks, cross-sector collaboratives, and grassroots leaders.
I invite you to read with curiosity. If something resonates, let’s talk.
Work that listens, connects, and
moves through complexity.
What Others Say
In addition to being the most organized person that I’ve ever met, Christy is a seasoned facilitator who guides the participatory process with deftness and humor. – Funder
What Others Say
“I appreciate all you’ve taught me and how you’ve supported me, the time you’ve offered me, your positive, ebullient spirit!” – Community leader
What Others Say
“You have such a gift of feeling, connecting dots, and nailing what you make of your listening experience with one single and sharp question – which I haven’t seen in other coaches before. What you are able to bring into a process is far more valuable than either tons of experience or being able to follow a coaching process by the book.” – Trauma-Informed Coach, Germany
What Others Say
“Christy is doing seriously difficult – and seriously good – work. She doesn’t just talk about high-level ideas; she operationalizes them in real time, even in the face of challenges. The way she models reflection and works together with others reveals both the beauty and complexity of what she’s pulling off.” – Emeritus professor of leadership studies at NC A&T University
What Others Say
“Working with Christy on this project has been remarkable. Her leadership brings the best kind of stimulation – moving fluidly from intellectual dialogue to on-the-ground action, and back again. It’s been a gift to wrestle with ideas alongside her.” – Professor at UNC’s School of Government, specializing in public leadership, collaborative governance, and civic engagement
