MFG are the initials of my name, but the acronym also shares a connection with the business world, where it is an abbreviation for manufacturing. Too often we think of the industrialized version of manufacturing. Too often we apply industrialized norms to social change. However, the word ‘manufacturing’ comes from its roots ‘made by hand.’
This sentiment is the essence of our services – bespoke, personalized, and meeting you where you are at. We are committed to empowering individuals, couples, and families through personalized professional coaching, philanthropic advisory, rigorous research, and transformative instruction.
