Great public involvement and communications starts with a strategy and a plan. I will come up with an action plan to help you answer the questions:

• Why are we doing this?
• What does this have to do with our larger goals?
• What do we want the end result to be?

I look at who you’re trying to reach and what you’re trying to accomplish, and come up with a plan for how to get there through tools like:

• websites
• events
• social media
• presentations
• advertising
• small group meetings
• surveys
• and more

I offer full-service public involvement campaigns for public agencies. I can scale up (manage and lead a full-service campaign) or down (perform discreet tasks like graphics development or technical editing) depending on your needs.

I will ensure you meet all federal and state public involvement requirements for the specific programs and funding you’re working under. I will also help you build trust with the public, communicate clearly about your project, and turn controversy into an opportunity to build a better relationship with the communities you serve.

Examples of how I can help your agency or your clients include:

• work in rural, remote, and urban communities in Alaska
• ensuring accessibility for under-served populations
• turning complicated situations into a clear message
• targeted communications to specific audiences
• building consensus and collaboration between groups
• facilitating meetings and events of all sizes

Clear and engaging writing is essential for great communications. I can create documents from scratch, proofread and edit documents you wrote, and review your AI outputs to be sure they are accurate, sound authentic, and are appropriate for your audience. Some of the documents I can assist with include:

• website content
• technical writing
• proposals
• grant applications
• social media
• newsletters
• ad copy

I provide event planning and facilitation services including:

• public meetings
• public hearings
• workshops
• small group and stakeholder meetings
• charrettes
• conferences
• parties
• festivals

I can transform what you create into a beautiful, professional format that helps you build credibility. I also ensure graphics and documents I design are accessible to colorblind individuals and those using screen readers. Examples of what we can assist you with are:

• reports
• flyers
• logos
• maps
• social media
• stickers
• infographics
• charts
