In times of heightened global attention and company-defining challenges, strategic communication becomes essential. During the Cambridge Analytica crisis, I led the executive communications that prepared Meta’s leadership, crafting narratives that supported CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s testimony before Congress—a moment watched by billions and critical to restoring trust among users, the media, investors, regulators, customers, employees, the public, and the tech industry. I believe impactful communication is grounded in thorough preparation, clear strategy, and a deep understanding of stakeholder perspectives. My focus is on creating narratives that not only address the immediate needs of an organization but also reinforce trust and resilience in the long term.
