I’ve worked in Business Communications and Public Relations for more than 20 years. In that time, I’ve taught workshops throughout the country, helping businesses and nonprofits with their communication and public relation needs.
I earned my APR (Accredited in Public Relations), the prestigious credentials for public relations professionals which shows demonstrated competency in the knowledge, skills and abilities required to practice public relations effectively in today’s business arena.
Because I’ve worked most of my career in the nonprofit arena, I’ve developed a varied skill-set of writing abilities. In case you don’t know, one of the “benefits” (i.e., requirements) of nonprofit work is cross-training; with limited budgets and volunteer personnel, it becomes necessary to learn (and do) it all! Everything from web content to software manuals. I’m also honored to have published numerous articles in national magazines and local newspapers. I even worked for several years as a “stringer” for the local newspaper.
Some of the organizations I’ve worked for include the American Heart Association, the North Texas Food Bank, Consumer Credit Counseling Service and American Medical Response. I’ve also worked for two international associations.
