I am a highly skilled communicator and creative project manager with over 20 years of experience. My focus has been employee communications in multiple industries, including religious organizations, healthcare, insurance, human resources and more. I have provided messaging, content development and editing for a variety of communications vehicles, including websites, newsletters, e-newsletters, brochures, print ads and video scripts. I have designed brochures, newsletters, flyers, web graphics, print ads, logos, etc., and am especially adept at text-heavy material. Most recent project: I helped develop, write and design the benefits open enrollment materials for employees and new hires of Ascension, the nation's largest Catholic and nonprofit health system.
