About Richard Rainey

Two decades of experience in communication, curiosity, and problem-solving. I have parlayed my years as a journalist and executive-level communications specialist to build a writing and communications practice focused on aiding and advising businesses, nonprofit organizations and public agencies with missions to improve the lives of people, families, and communities. My clients span the gamut of education, public safety, health, immigration, freedom of the press, and public service. I'll always have a soft spot for a deftly constructed sentence.Additionally, I am building a fine art practice based on my lifelong love for drawing to give clients one-of-kind portraits of people, places, pets and moments that are meaningful to them and their families. Always accepting commissions to capture in image the stories that make up our lives.
