We love a great story, don't we? Science says our brains are wired for storytelling. It connects us to other people, places, and feelings, well beyond ourselves. Even during sleep, our minds stay up all night telling us stories.To me, people don't buy ‘things’ as much as they buy into a story. Forget features and benefits. We connect with ideas, emotions, and promises. Storytelling is how great brands captivate and keep customers. And that’s where I come in.I'm passionate about branding and the power it holds. While working in telecom, broadcasting, and media, I've been lucky enough to create brand awareness campaigns that use well-told stories to drive consumer action. During my time with Lumen Technologies, I have put my experience as a strategic, dynamic brand leader to work launching memorable messaging, shaping brand identities, creating top-of-mind awareness and customer loyalty, and seeding compelling calls to action. With executive-level expertise in team leadership, copywriting, storytelling, and comprehensive marketing, I transform visionary ideas into compelling campaigns while delivering high-impact outcomes in a hyper-competitive landscape. The underlying throughline: Always tell a great story.Some of my skills:- Creating marketing, content, and public relations strategies that build engagement and audience action- Using a consistent brand voice across all platforms (digital and traditional)- Balancing the needs and objectives of different audiences: B2B and B2C- Presenting complex ideas in easy-to-understand formats for diverse audiences- Staff coaching, development, and results-oriented leadership- Project management- Strong attention to detailI link my passion for great content and storytelling with an enthusiasm for big-picture planning and daily operational management. I strive to ideate, plan, create, collaborate, and put innovative communication solutions into action. In short, I love telling the story. And people will always connect with a well-told story.
