I communicate complex information in accurate and elegant ways, so that people care.

The Story of Story Mill was a product of an internship with the US EPA Wetlands Division in Washington, DC.
I wrote Standing On The Shoulders of Giants for the newsletter of the Skagit Land Trust, in Mt. Vernon, WA.
I wrote When Velds Collide for the Sense & Sustainability blog.
Report & Research Summary Examples
I wrote the reports and briefs below while working as a water resources planner for Central Pines Regional Council:
Environmental Marketing
While working for CPRC, I helped develop the Jordan Lake One Water Coalition from an award-winning partnership into a new nonprofit. Communications roles included developing presentations and draft website text in addition to advisory roles.
My management and promotion of North Carolina’s Clean Water Education Partnership grew its budget by $20,000 annually. I did this by holding 1:1 meetings and developing presentations and promotional materials to convey CWEP’s value.
Editing Services
I can provide developmental and copy editing of reports, grant proposal narratives, academic papers in APA style, and more. Email me to inquire or see work samples.
I also offer resume and cover letter tune-ups for individuals looking for their next role!
Management and Strategic Communications
My management and communications work has grown long-standing, multi-stakeholder programs and partnerships’ budgets and outputs (see my strategy and planning page for examples.)
I also advise environmental managers on the development of public education materials. My experience leading North Carolina’s Clean Water Education Partnership included creative direction and subject matter input on a range of public education materials including this PSA animated by contractor Digital P Media.
