Director of Communications & Community Engagement

I am an accomplished communications leader and strategist with nearly 30 years of experience creating, directing and executing compelling communications programs. My expertise spans corporate, employee, executive and crisis communication making me a trusted strategic advisor and partner to senior executives. Throughout my career, I have been the architect of various integrated communications campaigns that build visibility, engage audiences and manage reputation. With a diverse background spanning various industries and roles, I bring a wealth of expertise in internal and external communications, brand development, copywriting, advertising and corporate branding.

I’m passionate about leveraging communication strategies to drive positive change and achieve organizational goals. As communications manager for a FORTUNE 500 utility, I led the team responsible for all marketing and communications within Mississippi including media relations, social media, brand management and employee communications. Our team consistently implemented award-winning communications strategies during times of crisis and achieved high customer net promotor scores year-round.

In my spare time I compete in triathlons, read, write for lifestyle publications and watch bad sitcoms. I live in Madison with my wife, Casey, and daughter, Ginger.
