What I Do
I turn impact into stories.
Your organization may already have the programs, partnerships, data, and good work.
You may even have plenty of content.
What you may not have is the time—or the person—to step back and figure out what the story actually is.
That's where I come in.
I take complex information and turn it into communications that are clear, credible, human, and worth reading.
IMPACT STORIES
The best social impact stories aren't really about programs.
They're about people.
I uncover the human stories behind your organization's work and turn them into compelling narratives that show why the work matters.
Examples include:
- Employee impact stories
- Community and beneficiary stories
- Nonprofit partner profiles
- Volunteer stories
- Program success stories
- Corporate giving stories
- Case studies
- Website features
- Award submissions
IMPACT COMMUNICATIONS
Your impact shouldn't disappear into a report or get buried on a corporate website.
I create content that helps employees, customers, partners, executives, and other audiences understand what your organization is doing—and why it matters.
Examples include:
- Social impact website content
- Internal communications
- Impact newsletters
- Campaign communications
- LinkedIn and social content
- Executive messages
- Program announcements
- Partner communications
- Thought leadership
- Editorial content
IMPACT REPORTS
Impact reporting doesn't have to read like a spreadsheet.
I take program information, metrics, accomplishments, and stakeholder input and turn them into a clear narrative that communicates both what happened and why it mattered.
Examples include:
- Annual impact reports
- CSR reports
- Program reports
- Foundation reports
- Executive summaries
- Impact highlights
- Data-driven storytelling
CONTENT STRATEGY
Sometimes the problem isn't the writing.
It's figuring out what needs to be said, to whom, and where.
I can help shape the story before the writing begins—identifying the strongest messages, audiences, content opportunities, and editorial approach.
This can include:
- Content strategy
- Messaging
- Editorial planning
- Audience strategy
- Story development
- Content audits
- Repurposing existing content
- Executive and thought-leadership content
WHY WORK WITH ME?
I bring two perspectives that don't often live in the same person.
Writer.
I've spent 27 years turning complex information into content people can understand and act on, across healthcare, technology, corporate communications, aging, wellness, higher education, and other industries.
Social Impact Practitioner.
I've also worked inside corporate social impact, managing programs and communications, working with nonprofit partners, supporting employee volunteerism, developing campaigns, gathering impact data, and communicating results.
So I understand both sides of the assignment.
You don't have to explain the entire world of social impact to me before I can start writing.
Give me the messy information.
I'll find the story.
