  Communications Director

  Microsoft

  Apr 2014 - Present - Redmond, Wa

  I work with media and influencers to tell stories about the people of Microsoft, the work we do and its impact on the world, with a focus on our company's bold environmental sustainability goals. Previously, I worked on CEO media strategy as well as telling our company’s growth story through a real estate lens. In this role, I developed unique communications expertise supporting book launches – creating media strategies, coordinating with publishers, educating our field partners and providing engagement support for our CEO’s New York Times best-selling book, Hit Refresh, launched in September 2017 and our CTO’s Wall Street Journal best-seller, Reprogramming the American Dream, launched in April 2020.I'm also proud to have served as Microsoft annual Give Campaign co-lead for our communications team, creating and executing plans that encouraged colleagues to give and volunteer in fun and impactful ways.
