FAQ - Frequently asked questions

  • There is no definitive timeline. However, a good rule of thumb is to allow at least 4-6 weeks for a typical federal or state grant.

  • Flat-rates are set dependent upon the service you select.

    I can accept payment via check, Squarespace or PayPal. If these options do not work for you, please let me know and we can work together to determine the best solution.

  • This is a process where myself and two other qualified professionals will review a "submittable" proposal and review it against a scoring criteria of a funder to assess the application's overall competitiveness.

  • My success rate for securing grants over the course of my career is over 90%, with more than $7 million dollars in awards.
