Strategic business partner, recovering journalist, word nerd, difference maker, bridge builder.Communication might seem simple, but successful communication is often elusive. Passionate about storytelling, I’ve followed the journalism axiom to make the important interesting and the interesting important. What excites me is driving results by communicating complex, critical information in a way that’s accurate, relevant and engaging to the intended audience. My superpower is breaking down complicated ideas into clear content, cutting through the clutter to connect people to stories and communicating strategically to achieve business goals, whether in a highly regulated industry like health care or on behalf of a Fortune 500 company.Strategic communications, stakeholder management, content strategy, editorial storytelling, media relations, internal communications, executive communications and copywriting are my areas of expertise. I’ve learned the most during difficult times – from communicating change management techniques during M&A integration to clarifying new processes and procedures implemented in response to the global COVID-19 pandemic. I'm a first-generation professional navigating corporate America. Colleagues rely upon me as a walking style guide; my tombstone will be written in AP Style with nary an Oxford comma in sight. Reading and running are my hobbies. Everyone has a story to tell. What’s yours?
