Thoughtful partnerships,
carried out with intention.

Every organization comes in with a different challenge, but the reason leaders reach out is often the same. Something feels off. Growth feels heavy. And they need space to slow down, see what’s really happening, and decide what comes next.

The work below reflects partnerships shaped with care, intention, and a deep respect for mission, where support was offered thoughtfully and always for a reason.

Logos Academy

Building systems, strategy, and sustainable growth

Logos Academy is a K–12 nonprofit school. When I joined, marketing was outsourced and internal systems were fragmented. I built in-house marketing capacity and strengthened internal systems to support sustainability across academics, fundraising, and communications.

The Work

I served as Marketing & Communications Lead, partnering closely with leadership to bring structure, consistency, and long-term thinking to how the organization communicated and operated.

My work included:

Bringing marketing in-house and aligning brand, messaging, and tone
Ensuring consistency across admissions, fundraising, academics, and community communications
Building internal workflows, calendars, and documentation
Supporting academic leadership with scheduling, planning, and reporting systems
Leading the planning and launch of a new school website
Managing timelines, deliverables, and cross-department coordination

This was not one project, but a long-term partnership focused on building systems leaders could sustain.

What leaders experienced

Marketing and communications became more consistent and easier to manage
Internal systems improved efficiency and reduced fragmentation
Leadership gained capacity to focus on mission and growth rather than constant coordination

“One thing I really appreciate about working with Kastin is her commitment to listening well. She seeks to truly understand her clients and the organizations she supports.”

— Michael, Head of School

Why this matters
Long-term growth requires more than one-off projects. By building internal systems and consistent messaging over time, Logos gained stability, continuity, and the capacity to grow without adding strain to leadership.

The Silver Academy

Brand foundations, messaging clarity, and enrollment growth

Despite a strong educational offering, The Silver Academy lacked clear messaging and organizational alignment. Prospective families struggled to quickly understand the school’s value, making enrollment growth difficult.

The Work

I conducted a comprehensive Brand Audit, clarified messaging and positioning, and supported leadership in building stronger foundations for enrollment communication and internal alignment.

The work focused on helping the organization articulate who they are, what makes them distinct, and how to communicate that consistently.

What leaders reported

Enrollment growth from 35 to 64 students in one summer
10/10 rating for meeting project goals
10/10 likelihood to recommend
Increased confidence, alignment, and engagement across the team

“Kastin really transformed the way I think about our organization and organizational work in general. Definitely the best investment I have made for our school.”

— Gila, Head of School

Why this matters
Clear foundations and aligned messaging helped families understand the school’s value more quickly, supporting confident decision-making and sustainable enrollment growth.

Leadership Baltimore County

Storytelling, brand momentum, and incremental growth

Leadership Baltimore County wanted to better communicate program impact but felt overwhelmed by what a storytelling initiative would require, and how to manage it internally.

The Work

I served as Project Manager for a storytelling initiative, coordinating video, photography, and testimonials and guiding stories from capture through publication. After the project, I supported the team in integrating those stories into their website and communications.

Rather than treating the work as a one-time initiative, I helped leadership see how updates could happen incrementally and sustainably.

What leaders reported

9/10 rating for meeting project goals
9/10 likelihood to recommend
Increased confidence in brand communication

“I felt like I had a partner in moving LBC’s mission forward through storytelling.”

— Mary Kay Page, Assistant Director

Why this matters
Having a trusted project manager ensured the initiative moved from vision to execution and created momentum that extended beyond the original scope into broader brand and communication efforts.

Working with intention.

Every engagement you see here was approached intentionally, shaped by listening, observation, and what would be most useful at the time. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions or doing work simply to stay busy.

The goal is thoughtful progress that supports the people leading the organization.

If something here resonates, the next step doesn’t need to be a decision, just a conversation. We’ll talk through what’s present, what matters most, and what kind of support would be purposeful right now.
