ABOUT ME

I help organizations grow their impact so they can meet their mission.

I love working with local non-profit organizations and community-minded businesses. I provide strategic communications and marketing counsel to leaders and boards to help raise community awareness and meet big organizational goals.

For more than 15 years I have had the pleasure of working with organizations of all sizes throughout the Seattle area, including the YMCA, Food Lifeline, Eastside Legal Assistance Program, Senior Center of West Seattle, Feeding Washington, Disability Empowerment Center, Millionair Club Charity, Washington Planned Giving Council and many more.

My specialties include strategic communications planning, fundraising communications, digital strategy, community relations, website revamps, executive speech writing, editing, social media strategy, strategic corporate messaging, media relations, rebranding, event strategy and staff training workshops.

​

My approach is first to listen and learn, and then to create a plan that meets the realistic needs and budget of your unique organization.
