For as long as I can remember, Ive been a professional communicator. Im the oldest of five children and my fourth-grade teacher, Mrs. Truitt, threatened to send me to the coat closet for talking but feared Id just talk to the coats. The talking continued - I studied Spanish and French in college.
Since then, the work I do is about storytelling supporting a brand promise, informing or persuading an audience, delivering a message, or promoting a service.
I spend my time thinking about communications strategy for colleges and universities across the country.
