This is the Local Media Group
I’m currently Director of Brand and Communications at an agency I co-founded.
We build brand and communications strategy for philanthropies and corporations. My team develops brand strategy, integrated marketing campaigns, and storytelling frameworks all tied up with dynamic tweaking based on measurement and insights.
I particularly enjoyed brand building for a $MM collaborative funding platform led by the Ford Foundation, Wayfarer Foundation, and Fetzer Institute. Our Spiritual Imagination framework held creative and channel strategy together, profiling a dozen grantees in video, photo, and flat assets, raising millions of dollars from new foundations.

Rotary Clubs
We built digital and creative assets, event strategy and implementation for Rotary and Malaria Partners International’s ‘Join the Community’ campaign. Bringing together NGO, private sector, government, and civil-society members from a dozen countries to Zambia to share data outcomes, educate on emerging best practices, and build funding resources.
James Beard
My team organized an in-person activation and creative content with James Beard award-winning Chef Peter Merriman and his Handcrafted Restaurant Group. Chef Merriman pioneered the farm-to-table movement in his award winning Hawaii-based restaurants. Our activation connected his Hawaiian team with food producers in Italy, using sustainability practices to bring high quality food to market.
