About Carve

Mission

To reveal genius within leaders and organizations through equitable systems that transform potential into excellence.

 

About Jeff

I believe we’re at our best where purpose meets play.

 
 

MY WHY

I started Carve because I can't stand watching potential go to waste. In too many organizations, middle managers and rising leaders—those carrying the real weight of execution—are treated as interchangeable parts rather than engines of transformation. They're drowning in tasks while starving for development. Here's what I believe: when these key people have the right structure and tools, everything changes. Organizations keep treating this as a "nice-to-have" when it's the essential foundation for anything that lasts. This is the problem I wake up to solve.

 

MY HOW

I listen. Context matters, as do all voices within your organization. My approach combines frameworks from global consulting firms like Deloitte and Booz Allen with hands-on implementation experience within federal, state and local government agencies and nonprofit startups.

I co-design solutions through user-centered, participatory methods—informed by best practices but customized to your specific needs.

I prioritize building your capacity over creating dependency, and I balance inclusive practices with forward momentum.

Implementation planning starts on day one, with changes designed to integrate into your existing workflows for maximum impact with minimal disruption.

And throughout it all, I bring a spirit of creativity and fun to our work together because…why not?

 

MY LENS

I've worked across global consulting firms, urban school systems, government agencies and nonprofits, giving me a unique view on transformation. I care deeply about human-centered design and believe freedom comes from understanding and using your strengths. I'm committed to elevating underrepresented voices and building equitable systems. Real change happens when organizations honor both human experience and structural needs—creating opportunities for everyone to contribute their best.
