Coaching & Editing
Coaching
Are you a leader who wants to inspire your team and decision-makers with your words?
Artificial intelligence (AI) is not inspirational and so isn’t effective for advocate or social change. It can hurt your credibility internally and externally. I can provide support to improve your personal and professional communications and build confidence in your authentic voice and knowledge.
Does your advocacy team need support? Individual staff keep using AI for blog posts?
I can provide workshops, training or ongoing coaching.
Writing & Editing
Need help with long writing projects?
Want to write a memoir or professional biography?
Increasing your credibility through academic journal articles, white papers, op-eds, speeches and submitted testimony and comments takes skill. I can ghostwrite or edit at any stage of the project.
Together we can tailor your message and format for the right audience who can help you reach your goals.
