Marketing & Media Relations

There are many ways to tell your story. I can help you tell it effectively.

Business owners often know what makes their company special, but they're not always sure how to communicate the message or reach the right audience. As a journalist, I look at the big picture and can help businesses distill the most important or unique aspects into a compelling story for the media or their customers.

Having worked as a reporter and editor, I understand what media outlets look for and channel my experience to create a compelling pitch that both captures the story and appeals to basic tenets of newsworthiness.

Moderating a panel discussion

Whether it's through newsletters, blogs, brochures, website copy, emails, webinars or press releases, my goal is to help you share your story in the way that's most likely to resonate with the people you want to reach.

In addition to writing, I have experience planning and executing events that can bring your audience to you. As a professional interviewer, I can assist with alternative storytelling methods, such as video or moderating discussions.

I love to learn about businesses. Visit the home page and send me a note via the contact form to let me know how I can help you share your story.
