I'm a Social Communicator with over 30 years of experience across press, governmental, and corporate journalism — from the newsroom trenches to leading teams in culture, media, and client relations.
My journey spans radio, television, and education, where I've honed a deep understanding of how stories connect people and inspire change. I'm passionate about culture, community, and driving projects that make a lasting impact.
