A new NGO was starting a private magnet school in East Africa. To ensure government cooperation through the licensing process the school had to commit to enrolling a diverse student body. The country has over 90 tribes and languages across 12 large regions as well as several major religions. Students from rural regions tend to be poor and struggle with access to quality primary education and schooling. Simultaneously, the client needed to rapidly develop a curriculum that would be approved by the Ministry of Education.

My team developed a plan for student recruitment through marketing and screening. We also created a MEAL plan that ensured the paramenters for enrollment were met. The school was able to fill 100% of seats with students from all 12 regions. 40% of the student body hailed from a rural area. Over 30 languages were represented in the inaugural class. 

Several years ago Honey Bees and other pollinators were beset by a slew of issues such as Colony Collapse. This threat could have been devistating to the United States food supply. The White House ordered several agencies, including one housed within the Department of Homeland Security to respond to the growing problem. For Agencies within DHS this problem with well outside their usual Congressional Mandate and stakeholders were met with pushback by leaders within other divisions.  

By contracting out meetings and planning Agency leaders were able to quietly meet the mandate. This approach freed federal employees to continue with their typical tasks. My role was to liase with other members of the federal family working on the issue and then determine a way for my client's portfolio to serve the overal White House plan. My role ended with the articulation of a plan that was accepted by the Executive Office of the President / National Security Council that then becamse Agency protocol.
