Sampling of companies I've had the pleasure of consulting with:

I advise public figures, athletes, small businesses, and nonprofit organizations on building their brands, managing their reputations, and telling their stories.

Public Relations:

I write time-sensitive and situation-specific messaging to convey proper brand sentiment whether to diffuse a situation, communicate during a crisis, or humanize a brand and its voice.

Digital Strategy:

I help brands, athletes, corporations, and non-profits with their online presence and reputation by creating personalized communication plans and tactics to competitively position their brands and expand their reach.
