Strategic messaging for nonprofit executives and the people they serve.
With 15 years of experience in communications—nearly all of it in the nonprofit sector—I specialize in helping leaders like you connect with the audiences that matter most.
From crafting donor communications to guiding leadership in strategic board engagement and strengthening internal communications, I’ve partnered with organizations across diverse industries, including policy, nonprofit, faith-based, and for-profit sectors. My work has focused on helping these organizations communicate more effectively, align internal teams, and deliver results with clear, compelling messaging.
My credentials include a master’s degree in Mass Communications and Journalism with a focus on Integrated Marketing Communications from the University of Kansas. Throughout my career, I’ve taken on key leadership positions—from Marketing Director to Director of Communications to Chief Communications Officer—where I’ve developed and executed strategies that fuel organizational success and connect with key stakeholders.
As your fractional CCO, I’ll partner with you to create clear, actionable communications strategies that build stronger donor relationships, strengthen connections with your board and team, and ensure your mission resonates with those you serve.
