What I do

I work with CEOs, association leaders and senior teams who operate under public scrutiny — primarily in Washington, D.C. and across the national policy landscape. My practice sits at the intersection of public affairs, media strategy, reputation management and executive leadership, helping clients decide what matters, what does not and how to respond when the pressure is the highest.

I’ve spent more than 25 years working at the intersection of politics, media and public affairs — advising leaders, shaping narratives and helping organizations navigate moments that define reputation. I bring long memory to short news cycles and help clients see patterns before they become problems.

My public work — through writing and conversation — reflects how I think. My private work applies judgement when decisions matter most.
