I am a global communications executive with experience leading corporate communications across the U.S., Europe and Asia. I've spent four years living and working in Tokyo as the first inbound international executive at a major Japanese industrial company, Hitachi Industrial Equipment Systems, where I built and led a global communications team responsible for brand, reputation, crisis management, and executive, internal and external communications.

​

Today I advise leaders and companies who see communications as a core business function through advisory work, speaking and thought leadership. I also share reflections on leadership and communications with more than 23,000 followers on LinkedIn.
