About Clarifier

Maureen Langlois established Clarifier Consulting in 2024 after a career in higher education where she saw an unmet need for clarifiers to help funding seekers crystallize their ideas to make progress toward their goals.  Clarifying can come in many forms, from early team-building through ideation, concept development, proposal development,  submission, and funder pitches & interviews. Based in Columbus, Ohio, U.S.A., we have a global clientele including research institutions, non-profits, and startups. So far, we have helped our teams land over $80 million in project funding. Will you be our next success story?

Juliana Haber, Head of Food and Nutrition Data Science

I appreciated Maureen's structured approach to grant writing, the amount of experience and insight she brought to the table, her willingness to learn and collaborate, and how easy it was for us to communicate, tag team, and work on our respective components simultaneously to make progress on multiple fronts. I would love to work with her again.
