Why I Do This Work

A wise creative director once shared with me this agency maxim: We translate what the client wants to say into what the customer wants to hear.

That’s exactly what I do, in a business context, where the “customers” are your employees, peers, board members, stakeholders, corporate customers or industry award judges.

I take great satisfaction in making the difference between intention and impact for my clients.

With expertise and an outsider’s perspective, I see opportunities that others don’t to improve business performance and results by making communications strategic, proactive and powerful.

Put all that together: I make leaders shine. And I love doing it.
