Vice President of Public Information & Special Projects

Public Relations Consultant | Founder | Podcast Host & Producer | Marketing Consultant | Writer | Author

After three decades in public relations and marketing, I've learned that the best stories aren't just told—they're strategically crafted to cut through noise and create genuine connection.

I specialize in crisis communication, reputation management, media relations, and brand narrative development, currently working in higher education (my professional first love). What sets me apart is blending traditional PR fundamentals with AI-powered tools—turning week-long projects into day-long solutions through automated research and streamlined workflows.

My expertise spans from corporate communication to creative storytelling. I ghostwrite for executives, guide emerging authors through indie publishing, and author the weekly Substack newsletter "All the Fits That's News"—covering everything from business strategy to the beautifully absurd parts of being human.

Since 2006, I've hosted numerous podcasts across multiple genres: "PR After Hours" (marketing/PR with a side of skepticism and mild snark, hold the jargon), "Mysterious Goings On" (creativity meets the writing life), a University of Central Missouri podcast, and I co-host a true crime show. Turns out the same storytelling principles apply whether you're fixing a brand crisis or unraveling a mystery.

As a speaker, I tackle crisis communication, reputation management, AI integration, writing and podcasting. My expertise has been featured on KCTV-5's Better Kansas City Show (2017–2023) and WHO-TV Des Moines' Hello Iowa! (2021-2023), numerous webinars and a few conference appearances. Kansas City Magazine named me "Best Local Author" in 2023 for my nine novels and two business books.

When not crafting communication strategies, I'm writing fiction, exploring historical sites (great for perspective on current "crises"), or acting like I know my way around the gym.
