Brad G. Philbrick & Company
You visit with a grant proposal writer, and you always find they never began their career as one. It always evolved into a career. Always. So, the same is true for Brad.
For Brad, a love for biology and chemistry, he decided on earning a pharmacy degree. He launched his career first as a pharmacist.
Brad left pharmacy practice in both retail and hospital to seek a career in biomedical sales. Still maintaining a career in the life sciences, sales offered a greater opportunity for creativity and the opportunity to be peripherally involved in research.
Sales and marketing of biomedical apparatus led to assisting with grants, writing content, crafting case studies, product descriptions, and informative white papers.
Continuing close relationships to past colleagues and clients is integral to Brad G. Philbrick & Company’s success. Memberships in the Grant Professionals Association, American Medical Writers Association, and the Indiana Health Industry Forum also help Brad G. Philbrick & Company provide its clients support from many of the leading writers and biomedical leaders in the country.

About Brad G. Philbrick
Meet Brad Philbrick: The Grant Proposal Writer and Memoirist with a Mind Map
and a Mission
Equal parts philosopher, wordsmith, and wisecrack, Brad is a retired pharmacist turned
full-time storyteller. This man traded pills for prose and found that the most potent
medicine is reflection. These days, he earns his keep as a skilled grant proposal writer
for nonprofits and small businesses, crafting compelling cases that open doors and fund
dreams.
He’s a nonprofit-savvy grant whisperer by day and a memoir-writing memory miner by
night. If Kurt Vonnegut and Fred Rogers had a brainstorming session over Beaujolais
and old leadership books, Brad would’ve been invited — notebook in hand, quotes at
the ready.
He’s got the soul of a critic, the heart of a healer, and the bite of someone who’s lived
through emotional neglect and isn’t afraid to call it out — with precision, poignancy, and
a wink of wit. He crafts blogs that make nonprofit leaders think harder, writes memoirs
that untangle childhood contradictions, and explores old books like Thriving on Chaos
and Free to Choose as if they were buried treasure maps to modern truth.
Whether he’s unraveling a family saga over mismatched birthday cakes or dissecting
self-deception with Einsteinian curiosity, Brad doesn’t just write — he reveals.
— George Bernard Shaw from his play, The Apple Cart
