We’re passionate about helping innovators communicate and grow, and we offer a full spectrum of creative services to clients around the country. Our client roster includes U.S. Green Building Council, Western Michigan University, Sparrow Health System, Pacific Clinics, and the Capital Regional International Airport. I’m grateful to serve as an adjunct instructor in the Advertising + Public Relations Department of Michigan State University’s College of Communication Arts and Sciences. Prior to founding Moonsail North and joining the business world as an entrepreneur, my career involved fast-paced, nimble roles in marketing, public relations and journalism (on the journalism side, I'm an alum of The Hartford Courant). I received my master's degree from Columbia University's Graduate School of Journalism and my bachelor's degree from the University of California, Santa Cruz. I sit on the boards of the Greater Lansing Food Bank and Michigan Saves, and on the advisory council of Michigan State University’s Global Business Club. Past volunteering posts include coordinating the Central Michigan Public Relations Society of America (CMPRSA) Chapter’s Social Media Lunch ’N Learn and serving as a Capital Area Literacy Coalition volunteer. When I’m not running a business, running down class lists, or running after a toddler, I rely on ashtanga yoga to keep me grounded.
