I help to handcraft and execute winning communication strategies that integrate earned, paid and social media to engage and mobilize targeted audiences for my clients – including federal, state and local politicians, unions, socially-responsible businesses, and issue advocates in North America and Europe. Good communication means meeting your audience on their own turf and in their own words. I help design and analyze focus groups for clients across the United States, developing winning frames and messages for their campaigns and educational work.
