About Elliott

Hi! I’m Elliott Mitzi Williams and I use he/him/his pronouns.

Over the last two years I’ve had the privilege of supporting more than 20 nonprofits and small businesses in bringing their visions to life. I work at the intersection of strategy and execution. Here’s what I mean by that:

Strategy: A creative and strategic thinker, I ask tough questions, keep the mission at the center, and inspire a shared vision. As a board member for both small non-profits and endowed colleges and foundations, I’ve learned how to think from a birds-eye view. I’ve also gained unique insight into the opportunities and challenges of the non-profit landscape.

Execution: In my five years in the non-profit sector – including two as a Program Director at El Pomar Foundation – I’ve worked in the weeds facilitating strategic conversations, managing programs, implementing project plans, and generating effective communication strategies.

Finally, as a small business-owner myself I understand the joys and pains that come with running a small shop. I love working with fellow entrepreneurs to understand and articulate their work, identify and connect with their audience, and to communicate their unique value to the world.

Originally from Vermont, I moved west to attend Colorado College and have lived here ever since. I’m based in Denver and primarily work with clients in Colorado and New England.

Values

  • Get ready for lots of questions! I’m always digging to get to the “why” behind our work and decisions. A lifelong learner, I’m happy to try something new if I’ll learn in the process.

  • A team player at heart, I’m willing to jump right in and support your team where you need it most. I’ll give you feedback and expect it back so we can deliver the best work possible.

  • I genuinely want to know and connect with you, your team, and your stakeholders. I derive joy from building relationships and developing a strong foundation for our work. Let’s grab a coffee or go for a trail run!

In my free time, I enjoy frolicking outside!
