Why clients hire me

For more than 15 years I've helped executives, nonprofits, universities, healthcare systems, associations, and national organizations navigate their biggest communication challenges—from thought leadership and executive visibility to crisis response and strategic messaging.

 

I combine agency thinking, in-house leadership, journalism training, and classroom teaching to bring both strategy and execution to every engagement.

​

That combination allows me to quickly understand complex organizations, identify communication opportunities, and produce work that is thoughtful, practical, and ready to implement.

 

BUT MOST OF ALL, I DELIVER GOOD RESULTS.
 

  • Led communications supporting a $2.5 million national awareness campaign

  • Increased LinkedIn engagement by 2.5% in just 90 days for a billion-dollar company

  • Grew social impressions by more than 300% for a higher education institution

  • Supported fundraising efforts resulting in more than $4 million in new gifts 

  • Secured national media placements in The Washington Post, Wired, Wall Street Journal, and multiple trade industry publications

  • Developed communication strategies for organizations across healthcare, higher education, architecture, engineering, nonprofit, and government sectors
