Bio

🇮🇪 As the daughter of Irish immigrants, it's in my DNA to be a storyteller. So, it's no coincidence that my career began as a television journalist sharing the narratives of the people and communities I met along the way. 📺 In my transition from a newsroom to boardrooms and convention center stages, I've learned that everyone has an undeniable story arc in their lives that they can choose to share to make an impact. How you decide to do that is up to you. But it's in those stories that human connection and influence live. I love helping people and organizations find those messages that align with their goals to make a change in their organizations, communities, families, and elsewhere. 🎯 How can I help you? Let's start a conversation. A little about my background. I'm an Emmy Award-winning broadcaster, TEDx Speaker, Certified Diversity Executive (CDE®), adjunct professor, executive coach, Olympic Torch Bearer, author and communications practitioner. My jam is helping executives & their teams improve their executive presence so they can drive business results. I oftentimes partner with human resources and learning and development leaders on their talent development initiatives. Think of me as an extension to your team. Prior to my role as Director of Corporate Communications for UNC Health, I led professional development initiatives at Walk West where I'm also a Partner. From media training to presentation coaching and workplace communications programs, my goal is for you to move hearts and minds with your communication. In addition, I'm an adjunct professor at NC State University's Jenkins MBA Program teaching Business Communications and a Senior Instructor with Walk West On Demand, an online learning system.
