C O M M U N I C AT I O N T H AT M O T I VAT E S AC T I O NWhen I taught literature, I communicated to de-escalate conflict, motivate improved performance, and encourage better life choices. When I was a fundraiser, I communicated for the purpose of maintaining income and creating new donor relationships. Today, I use persuasive rhetoric and images to tell your business’ story and attract your target customers.
I M A K E I T PA I N L E S S F O R YO UWhen my clients say it’s easy and painless to work with me, I attribute their positive experience to my career path. I have continually studied and practiced effective communication my entire adult life. Encouraging my audiences to take a specific action, and making them glad to do so, has been my life’s work.
