Testimonials

  • “The Maine Jewish Film Festival recently worked with Celine to conduct an executive director search. Working with Celine was a delight. Her experience and knowledge was invaluable. Her instinct to help complete our goal was remarkable. I would not hesitate to work with Celine again and would most definitely recommend her.”

    — Jamie Isaacson, Board Chair of the Maine Jewish Film Festival

  • “Celine is a kind and introspective person who brings out those traits in the people around her. Working with her as I take on new leadership roles has been tremendously helpful in figuring out the type of leader I want to be and how I want to show up in service of those with whom I am working.”

    — Staff Member at The Nature Conservancy in Maine

  • “Celine is an invaluable resource for non-profit leaders. She has been a thought partner throughout our organization's continuing development. She worked collaboratively to facilitate strategic planning and board development, supported the implementation of executive committees and personnel hiring, and assessed organization materials for equity and language accessibility. Her clear and thoughtful communication style, ability to think outside the box, and her approachable manner has helped strengthen our foundation as we move into our tenth year as an arts organization."

    — Beth Wilbur Van Mierlo, Executive Director of Side x Side
