Most forming cohousing groups don’t have a clear roadmap for turning curiosity into committed membership. That’s completely normal.

Coho Collab makes the membership journey simple, understandable, and actionable—from first inquiry to Explorer to equity member to future homebuyer.

Services include:

Mapping the membership journey

Guidance on converting interest into Explorers and equity members

Strategic next steps for sustained growth

Founder

With nearly 20 years in senior living sales and marketing, I’ve seen the power of connection—and the deep need for housing that supports it. That insight led me to cohousing, where I now help groups go from idea to operating systems that maximize equity membership growth.

A graduate and ongoing affiliate of Katie McCamant’s 500 Communities Program, I work closely with cohousing professionals to bring new communities to life. I specialize in jumpstarting forming groups into thriving membership-building machines—turning interest into commitment and strategy into action.

Through Coho Collab, I’m supporting communities in South Dakota, North Carolina, Alabama, and leading the launch of Kinni Cohousing in River Falls, Wisconsin. I bring a powerful mix of relationship-based sales expertise, tactical marketing know-how, and grounded, actionable guidance.

I believe cohousing is a bold, beautiful solution to isolation—and I’m here to help you make it real.
