Vice President of Corporate Communication
Aprio Advisory Group, LLC
Who I work with
As Vice President of Corporate Communications, I partner with our Chief Executive and Growth Officers to design and lead impactful communications strategies that position Aprio for continued growth across the U.S. and globe. I lead a talented communications team that specializes in media relations, executive communications, internal and external corporate communications, and client engagement programs to achieve Aprio’s growth and performance goals.
My specialty
I apply a strategic communications lens to business objectives and industry opportunities to create a vision for effective communications programs that nurture Aprio’s services, help navigate complex changes and build its brand. I also employ a people-first leadership style to inspire and lead high-performing, collaborative communications teams that deliver on that vision.
Powered by a leadership style that is positive, innovative, and pragmatic, I am recognized for my ability to bring the voice of multiple stakeholders to the boardroom to help brands seize opportunities and meet the growing challenges around business and cultural transformation issues.
Results I have delivered
I drive a consistent, clear narrative around the firm’s growth strategy and opportunities that are fundamental to everyday operations bringing innovative story-telling and creative thinking to drive goals forward.
I have more than two decades of experience in business development, marketing and communications for several widely recognized brands, navigating through periods of transformation, disruption, and growth. Prior to joining Aprio, I served as the chief marketing officer for one of the nation’s leading energy and environmental law firms. My extensive experience in the professional services arena, coupled with my role as a trusted advisor to C-suite executives, fuels my bold, cross-disciplinary approach to brand-building and communications at Aprio.
