About

I am a well-seasoned PR, writing, editing and content strategist with extensive national and international experience leading multi-stakeholder campaigns for global corporations. I am a strategic storyteller committed to building and implementing successful strategies designed to effectively connect with and engage targeted audiences. My early years in journalism and news reporting/editing informed my later career in corporate communications and public relations consulting. I am a collaborative leader focused on team development. I have trained scores of journalists and PR pros. I am highly skilled at managing multiple projects simultaneously, delivering projects on time and on budget. I also am semi-retired, enjoy traveling, co-manage TAKINGTHEKIDS.COM, and rescue dogs when they need rescuing.
