Local and regional media tied to HOPE City travel and programming
Proactively activate local media (TV, radio, business journals) in advance of city visits
Oversee first-person content platforms including podcasts, editorial, and digital storytelling
Ensure message discipline, brand alignment, and reputational risk management

Experience supporting a high-profile CEO, founder, or public figure
