What I do professionally and passionately
Clients shortlist companies, but they hire people--especially in the world of professional services. I'm talented in building a team’s authority in their areas of expertise.
My work is in the space between people and ideas. People can often get caught up in their own thoughts and struggle to communicate them clearly. I help leaders find the connections, identify what's essential, and communicate in ways that resonate. I help teams become known for something.
A certified content marketer, with over twenty years of experience, my A-game is in communications, helping professionals establish themselves as thought leaders through articles, industry reports, case studies, emails, and SEO-driven content. A writer at heart, my content appears in popular online publications such as: Hacker Noon, Business Insider, Career Relaunch, Better Humans, and at salasobrien.com.
Why am I often pictured with crayons?
When I first saw a sketchnote artist at a conference, I was blown away by the clarity that visual notes provide. I grabbed a box of crayons and a notebook and began to practice. Now, I help others learn to journal visually through my passion project: yourvisualjournal.com. I create the content and illustrations for the website, and teach workshops on the technique.
Years of visual journaling have honed my skill as a graphic facilitator and I have scribed for clients like TEDx Plano, Global Design Alliance, Perkins & Will, and SMPS.
Sometimes, I also provide freelance illustrations for commercial projects like magazine covers, books, and online content.
One more thing I care deeply about
Magic happens when people meet one-on-one to talk about their experiences. Meeting regularly to share aspirations can be transformative. This is why I'm an active mentor for SMPS North Texas and with Salas O'Brien.
If you are wondering how I have the bandwidth to do all of this...
I am fueled by green smoothies and have a vibrant meditation practice. I also learn from great mentors, practice essentialism, and am surrounded by exceptional family and friends.
Say hello.
