“I have an idea, but I don't know where to start.”
LET'S FIND THE WAY FORWARD.
I help sort through the unknowns, identify priorities, and turn your idea or challenge into a plan you can use.
STRATEGY / SYSTEMS / PEOPLE / PROGRESS
FIGURE IT OUT.MAKE IT BETTER.GET IT DONE.
Got a big idea, a messy process, or a challenge you can't quite solve?
That's where I come in. I help people and organizations find clarity, build practical solutions, and turn ideas into action.
DIFFERENT THINKING.✳MEANINGFUL SOLUTIONS.✳PRACTICAL RESULTS.
SOUND
FAMILIAR?
You know something needs to change. You just might not know what kind of help to ask for.
That's okay. Start with the situation, not the service.
“We're working hard, but things still aren't working.”
LET'S WORK SMARTER, NOT HARDER.
I look at processes, people, and systems to uncover friction and develop improvements that fit the way your team actually works.
“We need to get this done. Who's going to pull it together?”
LET'S PUT THE PLAN IN MOTION.
I help organize priorities, coordinate stakeholders, and bring structure to projects and programs that need momentum.
None of these sound exactly like your situation? Tell me what you're working through. We'll start there.
LET'S FIGURE IT OUTSO, HOW DOES
THIS WORK?
You don't need a polished proposal or all the answers. Tell me what you're working through, and we'll start there. If I can help, I'll recommend a practical way forward and explain what an engagement could look like.
YOU TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON.
Share your challenge, idea, or goal in your own words. I'll listen and ask questions so I understand the bigger picture.
WE FIGURE OUT WHAT MAKES SENSE.
I'll consider your priorities and constraints, then determine whether my experience is the right fit for what you need.
YOU GET A CLEAR NEXT STEP.
If we're a match, I'll propose a scope, deliverables, timeline, and investment so you can decide how to proceed.

HI, I'M
LAQUITA.
People have called me a “Corporate MacGyver.” Give me a challenge, and I'm going to figure it out.
For more than 15 years, I've worked across healthcare, education, nonprofit, consulting, and political operations, helping teams launch initiatives, improve processes, implement new systems, and develop programs that support people.
I built The Lusk Effect to bring those strengths together. Sometimes you need a better plan. Sometimes you need a fresh perspective. And sometimes you need someone who can make sense of the moving parts and help get the work done.

TELL ME
WHAT'S GOING ON.
Not sure what kind of help you need? That's okay. Tell me a little about the challenge, idea, or project, and I'll follow up about a possible next step.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO HAVE IT ALL FIGURED OUT.
