Colleagues describe her as "Sheila has an incredible talent for engaging audiences across multiple media, from audio to video to the written word. I attended a podcast and public relations workshop Sheila produced and presented and it was perfectly suited for beginners and the tech-unsavvy such as myself. Besides covering the most essential elements of audio and tech, she spoke about the importance of defining a purpose for your podcast to create content, maximize your audience and drive impact. While working together I edited and published a great deal of her work for the arts publication Sixty Inches From Center. One of her great strengths lies in crafting a cohesive content plan that aligns with the organization's larger goals. She produced a number of excellent pieces for Sixty, including a fascinating two-part interview with folk artist David Leggett and artist and co-founding Executive Director of the Floating Museum, Faheem Majeed about the Chicago Home Theater Festival. Based on her engaging content we then commissioned Sheila for a social media takeover to cover EXPO Chicago, focusing on the Kerry James Marshall exhibit. Her web and social media content are always superb and I am consistently impressed with her ability to engage our audience and the interview subject. Overall, Sheila is a masterful communications strategist and an incredibly compelling content creator to boot. " and "Sheila is a perceptive Communications Leader who assisted the Audit and Compliance department with an ambitious communications campaign at the start of the pandemic. When our agency had to quickly pivot to remote engagement instead of in-person training for our customers, Sheila quickly provided strong recommendations and solutions to ensure our customers were still able to retain the information. In less than a day, she created more concise messaging and led the team who designed collateral for easy customer reference, with plans for a multi-faceted engagement over a period of months. Sheila is first and foremost a strategist who adds value to cross-functional teams by remaining current on trends in communications. She believes in the mantra to 'begin with the end in mind', remembering that we're here first and foremost to serve our customers and is a pleasure to work with."
