The team

Not one consultant. A small team.

Legacy Weaver is a small team we call the Collaborative. Every engagement is served by a lead strategist, a writer, a technology architect when digital work is involved, and advisors we call in for specific questions. Never a caseload of thirty.

Lead strategist
Ana Marie Regaliza-Datuin

Founder. Runs the first conversation, signs off on the readiness memo, and stays close through the whole engagement. Two decades inside funding rooms.

Technology architect
Mark Datuin

Runs the digital side of the work — the private workspace, any websites or dashboards a partner needs, and the automations that keep the process sustainable.

Writer & funder researcher
The Collaborative (rotating)

Drafts the proposal, researches funders, and runs the reviewer-language pass. Each person carries one to two engagements at a time — never a full caseload.

Advisors
Program officers, board veterans, editors

Called in for a specific question — a reviewer's perspective, a board-side reality check. Never billed as staff time; always credited in your written record.

Why it matters

We manage capacity around active engagements, deadlines, and project complexity — not a fixed annual quota.

That's why we can stay close, tell you the truth, and hand off a record you'll still be using three opportunities from now.
