"I'll never forget one of our first meetings when we were brainstorming about opportunities for Tongue & Groove: I was actually moved to tears! I had done all of the work on my own for so long and suddenly here's this team of people who were fully invested in making my company thrive, and so focused on my vision! Feeling that collaborative spirit was a joyful moment. Since that time, with the consistent collaborative guidance of VDC, I've moved my company forward down the growth path. I've restructured my business model and we're about to dive into some wonderful new challenges. There's no way we would be at this point without the kind, patient, and wise attention of VDC!"
- Bobbi Block, Producing Artistic Director of Tongue & Groove Spontaneous Theater

We have shared thinking and approach of being rooted in a social justice framework, which has been especially grounding and exciting as UTC charts a new way forward."

"Brittany is amazing! Our unexpected search for a new Head of School required some soul searching from the board. Brittany distilled the key issues we were facing after a brief planning session, and structured our meeting in a positive, consensus building way. Our board came out with a reinvigorated sense of enthusiasm and shared vision as we embark on our head search. I can’t wait to work with her again!"

"There were three things I appreciated about Brittany's approach in working with us on the strategic planning process: (1) she made sure we considered the full range of voices and concerns from stakeholders to help us identify what is working well and where we need to give more attention to change; (2) she was adept and qualified at guiding the Board through the sometimes tricky and challenging conversations around identity and change; (3) she brought her own sense of self and sense of humor to the process, thereby helping things flow smoothly. It was a pleasure to have her guidance and clarity!"
- Nathan Martin, PAIPL Board Member
