Hi, I’m Cecilia Williams. A public communicator, storyteller & strategist driving high-impact communications to engage the public, activate stakeholders, and bring transformative policies to life. I have experience crafting messaging and communication strategies for traditional and digital platforms, authoring diverse consumer and media-facing materials (press releases, op-eds, speeches, etc.), and cultivating strategic partnerships (govt, advocacy, media, etc.) to boost reach and engagement.As former spokesperson to the New Jersey Assembly Speaker, my work has supported passage of a $50 billion state budget and other state policies creating greater prosperity for New Jersey communities. Now, within the Office of the Secretary of Higher Education, I direct external communications and facilitate executive communications in support of the Murphy Administration's strategic initiatives and investments for higher education.I'm always looking to gain new perspective and learn from fellow professionals, so feel free to connect!
