The Mission & Core Values Behind My Work

MISSION

Provide clear and compelling communications content that authentically tells the brand story, conveys needed information, and highlights the exact benefits to the client/customer when they choose to buy or work with any of my client organizations and businesses.

CORE VALUES

Honesty & Transparency

I take pride in being direct and transparent in my work. It’s my goal to manage expectations and avoid unpleasant surprises, unexpected costs, or gross time extensions of work and to quickly identify and find solutions for any red flags/challenges/obstacles that appear in a timely and calmly direct manner.

Be Authentic, Passionate, & Responsive

I strive to always be present and truly hear the needs, wants, goals, and objectives of my clients in order to ensure that my work, professional advice, and collaborative dynamics best serve the objective, bottom line, and immediate needs.

Act With Compassion, Kindness, and Respect

Compassion and kindness in all interactions is a priority. When working with colleagues, staff, partners, employees, vendors, and the public, I honor and respect that everyone’s perspective and experience are different and it ALL brings value to the conversation. I endeavor to treat everyone with whom I work with compassion and kindness – especially in times of stress.

Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging

I’m an avid and unapologetic supporter of organizations and policies that value DEIB and task myself to take learning moments when they arrive to further my own knowledge and ability to be a helpful ally and advocate while contributing to a team culture that celebrates what each individual brings to the workplace table … and the world.

Create Effective Results

I always seek to create communications content that is concise, clear, and accessible to the audience it’s meant to reach. A communications strategy and plan is useless unless the intended audience receives and absorbs it as intended.

Be Creative & Visionary

I desire to consistently bring creativity and innovation to any work I do. I’m always be looking for new and/or better ways of doing something so I’m always looking for creative insight that might open up paths and doors to either an existing audience or ways to invite in new.

Be a Learner Willing to Change & Grow

My ever-present goal is to remain open to new learning experiences and opportunities for change and growth … one of my least favorite things is blind and dogmatic allegiance to “that’s how we’ve always done it.” If how it’s always been done is still working, great; if not, it’s time for something new!
