I am a strategic communications leader with deep experience in regulated healthcare industries. In my current role I help to oversee the Minneapolis healthcare practice for Weber Shandwick, focusing on growth opportunities across a diverse portfolio of work. I also lead accounts in the pharma/biotech, medical device and healthcare innovation sectors focusing on everything from FDA approvals and product launches to integrated storytelling and thought leadership. My passion is in discovering what truly inspires and drives a brand or company, then finding creative ways to bring those stories to life through integrated communications platforms. Core skills include communications strategy and planning, media relations, reputation management, science communications around regulatory and medical milestones, and overall product lifecycle and brand management through communications.
