For more than 20 years, I’ve successfully managed communications strategies in highly competitive, challenging work environments. This includes senior communications positions at a Fortune 500 company, the Florida Governor’s office, and leading trade associations representing some of the largest sectors of the U.S. economy. My strengths include inspiring teams to consistently perform at a high level, developing and executing compelling advocacy/policy strategies and programs, effective issue management practices, maintaining key media relationships, implementing communications programs for multiple divisions, and creating a wide range of impactful communications materials.I’m highly motivated with a proven ability to inspire and manage a team, design innovative policies that proactively resolve both internal and external issues. In addition, I possess outstanding verbal and written communication skills, a calm demeanor under pressure, and the ability to work collaboratively with persons at all organizational levels.
