A words person, a visual person, and a people person, I am a strategic problem-solver who thrives in fast-paced environments. An energetic, analytical, creative professional and published author, I have 25+ years of experience across the fields of journalism, communications and PR; development, fundraising and event planning; nonprofits and philanthropy; reporting, writing, editing, copyediting, proofreading and research; digital marketing and website design; community organizing, public policy advocacy and electoral politics; interior design, renovation and architectural color consulting. As an entrepreneur, I have founded and run my own businesses, an interior design firm and, during the pandemic, a global online education company. At home in diverse communities and with all kinds of stakeholders, I am looking to work with people who value innovation and collaboration and who are seeking a practical, visionary changemaker to join their team. I'll apply my strong written, verbal and interpersonal communication skills and my ability to manage projects at scale to helping empower an organization to attain its goals.
