Bio
I work with leaders when the stakes are high and the margin for error is small.
For more than two decades, I’ve operated at the intersection of reputation, risk, and leadership judgment—across higher education, global nonprofits, travel media, and Fortune 500 environments. I’ve been brought in when organizations needed clear thinking, calm counsel, and decisive action—not noise, spin, or performative communications.
My work is not about tactics or execution teams. It’s about helping leaders think clearly under pressure, identify reputational risk early, and make decisions that protect trust before a situation escalates.
I’ve advised organizations and executives through:
• Crisis and reputational risk scenarios
• Governance, leadership transitions, and internal disruption
• Sensitive issues involving people, values, and public scrutiny
• Moments where judgment—not messaging—determines outcomes
Colleagues know me as someone who can quickly assess what matters, say what needs to be said, and help leaders move forward with confidence.
Today, I operate as an independent senior communications and strategy adviser, working selectively with leaders and organizations that value discretion, experience, and sound judgment.
