Companies, executives, and founders who are ready to be seen as leaders – not just vendors or marketers – hire me to help them develop and deploy their messaging and communication strategies.
I also work as a coach/mentor/editor for entrepreneurs, executives, and others who want to learn how to find their authentic stories and tell them to the world in an impactful way.
Leadership communications
Dylan and I worked together on an executive thought leadership platform. He wrote the highest quality pieces I’ve seen during my decades-plus career and provided excellent strategic counsel. He’s also a joy to work with. I couldn’t recommend him more. – Shoshana Deutschkron, tech marketing executive, ex-Upwork
My specialty is working with executives and comms/marketing teams to develop stories that resonate with target audiences, align with company messaging, and help establish leadership, influence, and authority. I help clients define their key messages, uncover their stories, and plan their content strategies; I also work with many companies to develop, write, and publish leadership content in a variety of media.
For larger projects, I can tap my network of freelance writers, designers, and multimedia producers to meet your needs. We can create and ship large quantities of high-quality content, week after week and month after month, on time and on budget.

This was one of the most useful training sessions I’ve ever attended. – Account director at a tech-focused PR agency
I'm an experienced public speaker, journalist, and writer, and can deliver practical workshops that help your team members become better writers, communicators, and thought leaders.
Recent sessions I've delivered:

- Thought leadership - how to craft stories that make you and your brand stand out
- Media relations - writing better pitches and connecting with reporters more effectively
Contact me if your organization is interested in learning how to write better, whether that's for communications, marketing, or general business writing.
This was a fantastic workshop! I loved the structure of it, it was super engaging, and filled with real life humor we can all get behind. I keep hearing from the group how much they enjoyed your workshop. We must do it again! – Jennifer E. Matos, COOP Careers
