I was once the child waiting for a family

Long before Adoption Pathway Consulting existed, adoption changed my life.

I was born in Ethiopia and, for a time, was the child waiting for a family. Through God's grace, I was adopted into a loving home.

As I grew older, I discovered a passion for helping people, solving difficult problems, and bringing clarity to situations that feel overwhelming. When I learned how financially challenging adoption can be for many families, I realized those passions and my own story pointed in the same direction.

That is why I started Adoption Pathway Consulting.

What I am trying to solve

Families who are ready to open their home often discover that the money is the hardest part to understand: what is still owed, what is due next, which grants truly fit, and what can and cannot be counted on. I built APC so a family can see that picture clearly and know what to do next, and so they can update it as their adoption changes.

I was once the child waiting for a family. Today, I help families remove the financial barriers that stand between them and the child they're preparing to welcome home.
