Born and raised in Ireland, now living in Brooklyn.A company can have the best strategy or the best product, but if no one understands it—i.e., if it’s not communicated effectively—you succeed. I am passionate about working with clients who work with employees, business, government, non-profits and civil society to shape a more sustainable, safe, just and fairer world. No one actor can shift our current obstacle of climate change and injustice in isolation. The only way is by working together.15+ years of comms experience.
