Ramsey Ford

Ramsey loves supporting people in their development toward becoming their best selves. Ramsey loves building things--art, furniture, new businesses, and relationships.

Ramsey is a collaborative change facilitator who brings creative and inclusive approaches to purpose-driven organizations seeking change and innovation.

In 2009, Ramsey co-founded Design Impact to co-create solutions to complex social problems with communities and grassroots organizations. Over 13 years, he grew this idea into a nationally recognized consulting organization whose work spanned the globe and sectors, ranging from workforce development to senior hunger, to children’s health, to organizational change.
