A staff training session at JCC Greater Boston.

Meet Amanda

I’ve been on
your side of the table.

Before Puzzles & Profits, I was a chief marketing officer in the nonprofit world. I’ve helped nonprofits grow on near-zero budgets and rebuilt tech stacks while keeping teams involved in the change.

That experience shapes the questions I ask. What does your staff need help with? What information needs protecting? What can your organization realistically take on?

“I’m so grateful for our connection and inspired to keep growing on this AI journey together.”

About the name

And yes,
I chose “profits”
on purpose.

More time returned to your team. More capacity to serve your community. Greater mission impact.

That’s what profit means here. The puzzle is how to bring AI into your work without losing what makes you human.

How I approach the work

Every recommendation starts with whether it helps your staff serve their community. We start with your goals, risks, and readiness, then consider the tools.

Leadership, policy, and training need to move together. I work through implementation with your people, so the plan becomes something they can use.
