Joanna Rutter Email & Phone Number

I use empathetic communication to connect with others, empower communities, and move forward big dreams about what a better world could look like. I've worked for a decade as a persuasive communicator and writer across service nonprofits, marketing agencies, B2B tech and SaaS startups, indie news, my own small business marketing consultancy, and the Experiential Learning Office at Duke University's Fuqua School of Business. I transitioned to direct care work as a housing case manager at Carolina Outreach on an Assertive Community Treatment team, working alongside clients living with severe and persistent mental illnesses to help them establish and maintain stable housing.Now, I'm pursuing my Master's of Social Work with a specialization in Community Management and Policy Practice to shape my communications background into a richer skill set centered on interpersonal care and social resilience. I'm eager to work at the intersection of environmental justice and climate crisis rehabilitation in my next career chapter.

Listed skills include Editing, Event Planning, Public Speaking, Blogging, and 16 others.
