Professional Experience

Based in the Washington DC area, I am a former television and radio reporter, working currently as a freelance journalist and 21st Century Media Strategist. I specialize in Social Media Journalism, Pitch and Press Release Angle Development and Strategic Communications Consulting working with businesses and corporations to create a strong 21st Century footprint. I have been in the industry for more than 25 years. My philosophy: It all comes down telling a good story... Whether you are at a cocktail party, on a ski lift with a stranger, in a business meeting or trying to sell something, it all comes down to telling a good story. That\'s because the trite phrase, \"communication is key,\" is always true. The cornerstone of any strategic communications campaign -- whether digital, traditional or a combination of both -- is your story complete with well-defined messaging, great content and an interesting angle. That\'s why, no matter the tools or venue -- press releases/pitches, collateral, websites, advertor
