I am a highly experienced public relations professional, an excellent writer and a versatile communicator. I've been on the front lines of controversies ranging from environmental spills and cleanups to industrial fatalities to allegations of animal abuse at marine theme parks. I'm known for keeping a cool head, getting people from many walks of life to talk together, and helping people find mutually agreeable solutions to problems they face.
