Having spent the first half of my career as a broadcast (and later print) journalist, I help clients understand perspectives and needs from ‘the other side of the microphone.’ Clients will tell me what they want media to know about their product or service, and I work to make the messaging sexy, newsworthy, and ultimately successful.
