With over 16 years of experience in public relations and communications, I’ve built a reputation for strategic leadership and driving transformative change across both B2B and B2C industries. I started my career working for Edelman leading media relations for Adobe software for 6 years and found my way to Chicago to do consumer marketing for CPG company S.C. Johnson. From there I continued my time in the agency world, launching award-winning campaigns for education, personal safety and lifestyle clients focused on influencer management, media relations and celebrity engagements. After spending most of my career in technology, I went to work in consumer healthcare, where I spent my days telling the stories and sharing expertise of the clinicians that impacted people's lives every day. I love building thought leadership programs to position executives and brands as industry leaders.I have a diverse set of expertise and industries where I have a proven track record of enhancing brand reputation, navigating complex crises, and creating compelling narratives that resonate with target audiences. My collaborative approach, combined with a creative flair, has made me a trusted advisor to C-level executives and a key driver of measurable business results. I’m also deeply committed to social impact, having revitalized corporate social responsibility programs and increased customer trust through authentic and impactful initiatives. My ability to foster a positive work environment while achieving exceptional outcomes makes me a dynamic leader in the field of public relations.Areas of Expertise: Thought Leadership/Brand Storytelling, Strategic Planning & Execution, Global Product Launches, Media Tours/Media Training, High Profile Media Coverage, Marketing/Sales Support, Budget/Project Management, Agency Management, PR/Global Client Success Campaigns, Crisis Management/Playbook, Community Affairs/Public Speaking, Social Impact/Corporate Giving
