the government communications consultant
who truly GETS government
You're communicating to real people. Your training and preparation should be grounded in real-world principles and practices. We help you uncomplicate the process and create authentic, transparent communications products and curriculum.
For the past decade, I’ve developed creative, practical communication strategies for government agencies in the Pacific Northwest.
I'm skilled at providing strategic communication direction for large-scale, politically sensitive projects and issues, managing crisis communications efforts, and developing and facilitating social media and crisis communication training.
I've served as a key spokesperson and public information officer during local and regional crises. I've developed style and branding guides for local agencies. I've created eye-catching documents and infographics for a wide variety of topics.
As a FEMA/DHS certified instructor, I teach social media, crisis communication, PIO, HSEEP, and flooding hazard awareness courses nationwide for the National Disaster Preparedness Training Center, Argonne National Laboratory, and FEMA's Emergency Management Institute.
I have a M.Ed. in Adult Education from Eastern Washington University.
