I help senior executives connect internal and external audiences to their mission and strategy through tailored, strategic communications.

Most people treat communications as an afterthought, something you figure out once the strategy is done. In my experience, that's where things go sideways. Business strategy and communications strategy need to grow up together — the gap between having a strategy and people actually believing in it is almost always a communications problem.

Before going independent, I spent four years as Industry Communications Manager at RSM US LLP, one of the largest professional services firms in the world, leading communications for industries including private equity, life sciences, real estate, and construction. I was embedded in leadership teams, contributed to strategy at the partner level, and helped launch service lines, technology platforms, and integrated social media campaigns.

Before RSM, I spent nearly a decade at C-SPAN, starting as a production intern and working my way up to producing Washington Journal, where I booked members of Congress and briefed our on-air hosts for live national television. I finished as a Marketing Specialist managing community relations strategy, staff, and budget across the country, generating 200+ national media placements along the way.

Outside of work, I make music with my brother, read voraciously, and spend as much time as possible with my wife and two young kids.
