We design strategies and programs that don’t just look good on paper, but actually work in the real world. Juniper empowers social impact organizations and companies to build the highest expression of their missions, and we walk alongside them every step of the way.
We partner with social impact leaders who want a heart-led partner, someone who is truly invested in and excited by their success. Our founder built her career at one of the world’s top professional services firms, but with a master’s in global social work, she came into consulting with a perspective that differed from the corporate mold. We know that slick slide decks don’t solve real problems, and that clients are far more than dollar signs or metrics to hit every quarter. We treat the organizations we work with as true collaborators and experts with world-changing potential. We are a “collective” to reflect our belief that real change is most powerful when it’s built in community.
was created to support mission-driven leaders through a practice that combines heart and expertise. We focus on strong roots, adaptive growth, and resilient ecosystems. That tension captures what we bring to our work:
perseverance and depth, fearlessness and intention.
What clients say distinguishes US is simple: We care ... a lot!
And it shows in how we partner, how we think, and how we lead alongside them.

organizations
— Nonprofit founder
"Our team had an overwhelmingly positive experience ... They were prepared and went above and beyond on all the deliverables that they produced. But, more important to us, it was clear that Sarah and her team cared about the success of the project, its ability to be effectively implemented, and how the project would advance our organization's mission. We were all grateful to have someone like Sarah support our team."
— program manager & educator
"Sarah is one of the most genuine, hard working, compassionate people I have ever met. Her heart is for helping people in any way that she is capable. She has always been an outstanding encourager and motivator, sensationally organized, and remarkably adaptable."
— nationwide Program Director, US Public Health Research Programs
I had the pleasure of working with Sarah on the development and pilot testing of a text-based intervention designed to improve health behaviors in a high-risk population - a challenging project requiring creative problem solving and attention to detail. Her professionalism and mature understanding of the logistical and operational project needs greatly contributed to the project’s success. In addition, she was a pleasure to work with and easily bridged different working styles of the team and highly structured bureaucracy in which the project was conducted.
— Administrator, international community development NGO
"I have always been impressed by Sarah’s commitment. She worked very hard in her role advising our organization. Sarah has shown exceptional commitment and a willingness to work on whatever it takes to get the job done. She has worked faithfully with our employees, clients and local authorities. She is always willing to learn new things and quickly adopt new ideas."
— Executive director for International climate nonprofit
"Sarah was the consummate professional and it was a pleasure to work with her. She saw what needed to be done and made it happen, proactively and positively. She managed complex relationships across a diverse group of senior international stakeholders, focusing on the outcomes while enabling others to give their best."
