I help amazing ideas become real experiences.
Since 2002, I’ve helped countless projects find an audience.
I focus on arts, culture, creative economy, community engagement, fundraising & development, marketing & branding, event production, governmental relations & economic growth in the city of Portland, Oregon.
Let's build stuff, get better, keep learning, and have fun!

Selected clients & collaborators
“As an active artist, I enjoy focusing on creating paintings and connecting with my clients, not on maintaining a website. Michelle makes it easy for me to devote time to what's important. She is also a patient teacher who empowers my creative direction so that I can make edits on my own.”
