Find the Story that Moves the Market
A smart conversation about communications is a conversation about strategy–who to reach, and when, and how, and why. I’ve been a journalist, a 4x founder with 3 exits, and Head of Communications, so I understand your journey from every angle.
Narrative is the new business plan, guiding decisions and aligning stakeholders to let you thrive in a world that doesn’t stand still. I bring fresh perspective and a can-do attitude to help you create long-term success.

I love making the complex accessible. My father was a physics professor who delighted in showing his kids the clear and elegant rules that govern the natural world. That stayed with me. When I became a journalist, one of my favorite publications to write for was the Science section of The New York Times, where I translated academic research for broad consumption. The power of simplicity was a key principle I instilled in my students at the USC Annenberg School of Communication, where I created and taught Communication Strategies for Innovators and Entrepreneurs.
