I am an independent public relations consultant with nearly a decade of experience orchestrating public relations and strategic communications programs for clients.

First and foremost a writer, I believe in the power and beauty of the written word. I credit this to my mom, who would always read to me, read in her own free time and inspired me throughout my childhood as a freelance writer and communications professional herself.

Before starting my own practice, I worked both in-house and at agencies. I'm a proven strategist and people manager having serviced a variety of B2B and B2C clients in the technology, lifestyle, entertainment and hospitality industries. Former clients include startups and established companies in the cloud and IT services, ad/martech, AI, cybersecurity, logistics and e-commerce realms, major consumer brands, dozens of different hotels, some of the nation’s largest entertainment and cultural events and nonprofit organizations.

I graduated with academic distinction from the University of Wisconsin–Madison with degrees in history and journalism with an emphasis in strategic communication. I reside in Chicago’s North Center neighborhood with my husband and our pets. When I’m not working, you can find me supporting local businesses, bars and restaurants, attending Cubs games, reading as many books as I can get my hands on, volunteering at The Catcade, training my dog in agility, traveling and playing both indoor and beach volleyball.
