I help you turn your ideas into messages, influence your most valuable audiences, and impact society and your bottom line.
I worked at Google during the advent of AI, directed an award-winning social-impact initiative at Esquire magazine, taught at a public school on Chicago’s West Side, and started my career as a staff writer at the Los Angeles Times.
Over two decades in technology, media, and education, my experiences have taught me how to ask the right questions, explain complex ideas in clear language, and embrace constant change.
But your audience doesn’t need to know my story. My job is to help them know yours.
I work primarily with Fortune 100 companies, nonprofits with $100 million or more in annual revenue, and their executives. I also partner with advertising agencies, market researchers, and PR firms.
You’re leading through change or a new opportunity, and how you communicate will be critical to success. You want an outside partner who can offer objective observations, informed insights, and actionable recommendations on executive, internal, and external communications.
You’re (re)launching a brand for yourself, your organization, or a product or service. You want it to stand out from the competition with strong positioning, identity, and copywriting that strikes the right tone and substance.
You want a ghostwriter who can help you get published or on air, or a speechwriter who can channel your voice for a big event. Maybe you’re drafting a sensitive note to an audience of one or many. Or you’re finally writing that book.
If you aren’t sure whether your project is a good fit, let’s talk. If I can’t help, I might be able to connect you with a trusted colleague who can.
