I’m proudest of…

My hard-won experience, which is everything in PR. It’s built on being elbows deep with clients every day. Every experience, good or not, can shape the next. In my career, I’ve built a lot of pride on supporting important innovators, companies and causes. Now, being able to channel all that experience toward helping purpose-driven companies and leaders doing important work is extremely fulfilling. Being supported by the best and brightest, and those who have endless enthusiasm for their work and bring it every day, is the best scenario.
