Award-winning communicator and passionate storyteller with 19+ years of experience in broadcast media, corporate communications, marketing and public relations. I help companies craft and deliver impactful messages that inform, inspire, and grow audiences.Highlights of my work include: + Serving as the primary host of Verizon’s company-wide live events, I’ve successfully engaged audiences of 100,000+ employees across multiple countries.+ Leading external media campaigns as a trusted spokesperson for Verizon, I’ve made appearances at dozens of television stations across the country every year.+ Creating on-demand video content for Verizon’s daily employee communications channel, my notable assignments include “on-location” productions at Super Bowls LVI & LVII and the Indianapolis 500.+ Traveling with C-level executives to support in-person events, I’ve connected with hundreds of team members across the U.S. and overseas, many of whom I continue to coach, develop, and improve their own communication skills. Prior to joining Verizon, I spent 15 years as a television news anchor and reporter. In addition to anchoring hours of daily newscasts for ABC, CBS, and NBC affiliates, various reporting assignments have taken me around the world. My deadline-driven work has garnered three Emmy Awards and a National Edward R. Murrow Award for news writing. From interviewing presidential candidates, creating content with high-profile celebrities, to developing culture-building moments with company executives, it has been the honor of my career to connect with people in so many meaningful ways, both as a journalist and corporate communicator. Of all the feedback I’ve received, from audiences large and small, there is one statement I’m always proudest to hear. It's when someone reaches out and says…“You make me feel like I know you.”That is what keeps me going. I am driven to create the kind of connections that transcend differences and champion the universal truths we all share. It is what I believe great communication is all about – building emotional connections that last beyond the final word.I would love to connect with like-minded professionals and explore collaborations with those who believe in the power of great storytelling.
