Please, do not ever apologize for existing, or for taking up space in the world, or having a well-considered opinion.
Helping Women Achieve Their Unapologetic Professional Metamorphosis
A 1995 Wellesley graduate, I experienced a personal metamorphosis during my time there. I found my voice and expressed it in ways I hadn’t before. I stopped apologizing for taking up space in the world—for existing. I learned to value my well-considered opinion and share it widely and unapologetically.
I now derive great satisfaction from supporting other women in achieving the same in their professional endeavors. I offer that through revelational and resonant strategic communications consulting.

Bringing You Sophisticated Professional Expertise
I began my strategic communications career at Wellesley as a student promoting people and events in the nascent online space. I'm now a digital pioneer who's spent over 25 years refining my strategic communications expertise in finance, nonprofit, and entrepreneurial sectors. I embraced the digital world and launched my consultancy in 1997, running my first viral content marketing campaign in 1998.
That campaign went global, made me a small business development “influencer” of the day, and helped me land what became my award-winning work at Black Enterprise magazine in the aughts.
This early exposure propelled me into helping senior executives develop thought leadership content for preeminent wealth industry brands. I also partner with organizations in the opportunity finance sector, offering strategic impact communications plans that emphasize culturally competent transformative storytelling that shifts narratives and drive social justice.
Besides my consulting work, I'm a regular contributor to American Express Business Class, providing insights to entrepreneurs on effective business development, operations, and financing strategies. With my extensive background in digital media, content marketing, and financial services communications, I'm uniquely positioned to elevate your personal or business brand and amplify your industry authority.
Whether you're an established professional transitioning in your career or you’re an experienced entrepreneur, my customized strategic plans will help provide clarity and a roadmap to increase your visibility, enhance your credibility, and drive meaningful engagement with your target audiences.
