My Work

Over my career, I've had the privilege of helping purpose-driven communication leaders accelerate their goals. Some examples of my work include:

​

  • Secrets of Social Impact Communicators Podcast: On my YouTube channel and podcast, I  share insights and interviews from around the world of social impact communication. You can check out an episode here, on YouTube, or on any iPhone, or Android device:





     

  • America's Conservation Ag Movement: I helped organize and lead two consecutive public-private partnerships under the ACAM umbrella as vice president of Trust In Food™, Farm Journal's sustainable agriculture initiative. ACAM supports farmers and ranchers in their climate-smart agriculture transition. I helped design, budget, fund, and lead the implementation.
     

  • 101 Climate-Smart Ag Conversatiô€†Ÿon Starters For Program Leaders, Doers And Thinkers: My free 34-page resource for climate-smart program leaders provides dozens of prompts to keep meetings on track, build relationships and empower social impact communicators to do their most important work in partnership with other organizations.
     

  • The Hottest Climate Job You've Never Heard Of: My Fast Company article spotlights an essential link in the delivery of climate-smart agriculture practices: technical service providers. I interviewed experts discussing potential bottlenecks and solutions in getting billions of federal funding implemented for positive climate benefits. Note: Another good climate example is my interview with Ann Sorensen, American Farmland Trust senior research advisor.
     

  • An Agricultural Dragon Awakes: I authored this long-form piece featuring reporting and observations from my tour of farms in China in 2016. It illustrates my ability to distill complex, multi-faceted, and world-changing subjects into stories that capture imagination and intellect in equal measure.
