Across my career, I’ve focused on helping organizations small and large find and engage with stakeholders - from clients to referral sources, partners, and funders. I’ve found that thought leaders often assume that, because they’re so attuned to the work they do, it’s common sense to others. So I thrive on working with them to extract those key messages, weave them into a compelling narrative, and develop strategies to effectively reach their target audience.
