​I'm the Senior Director of Corporate Communications for a global tech services company -- and a communications strategy wonk.  I've worked in ad agencies, digital agencies, creative shops and PR firms in New York and Indianapolis. My work has won more than 20 PRSA and two AAF awards, and I've earned my Accreditation in Public Relations (APR), a highly-respected credential designating executive-level communications strategy leaders. I've written screenplays, essays, and produced and directed award-winning short films. 

 I believe…

• it’s a bad sign if your work ruffles no feathers. Boundaries are for pushing.
• the “work” you’re doing when procrastinating should be the work you do full time.
• life is too short to not have a blast at one’s job.
• that only happy employees can create happy customers and clients; the employee experience matters.
• in learning from the interns and teaching the CEOs.
• it’s time to retire when you think you know it all.
• it’s okay to not have the answers as long as you’re driven to find them.
• in not being a "yes" woman. 
• In giving away your riches. No one is getting out of this alive; it's our duty to help each other out.
