Whether I’m facilitating a collaboration, designing a customized training program, or developing a communication strategy, my mission is to unlock the unique potential of every person and every team.  I create customized experiences for every client, helping individuals, teams, and organizations find the balance between research-backed best practices and strategies that will work for them, right where they are.

Over the past 20 years, I’ve engaged with thousands of communicators: from early-career professionals to senior leaders, from emerging contributors to experts with international portfolios and reputations, from new teams to high-performing collaborators navigating crucial transitions.

My background as a researcher – with a PhD in Comparative Studies and an MA and BA in Women's Studies – helps me understand how organizational cultures grow and change, and how to foster inclusion and understanding within them.  This foundation informs everything I do.

Originally from the Chicago area and Midwestern to my core, I now make my home in Maryland.  When I’m not working with clients, you’ll find me outside running, climbing, backpacking, or exploring this astonishing world, or busy indoors with games, puzzles, and piles of books.
