About me

Many of us venture to find the "fountain of youth" or as - Pearl S. Buck said, "To find joy in work is to discover the fountain of youth."

When I was young I had no idea my fountain would come in the form of a public relations practitioner. After all I wanted to be a news reporter and anchor and I even had dreams of being a regular on Entertainment Tonight.

Much to my chagrin, I could never mimic those gorgeous legs of Mary Hart's. But what I could find was a passion to build winning relations through a multitude of public relations efforts, including writing, managing people, coordinating special events, working with members of the media, Congress, Veterans groups and more.

For the past 23 years, the public relations efforts I've refined and honed have created winning venues for our Veterans, for our staff and for numerous other stakeholders. You could say in some ways we have uncovered our fountain of youth.

We hope the information on this site helps you to see some of the accomplishments. If you'd like to chat more about ways to create winning opinions, just let me know. Until then, cheers.
