Over the past two decades, I’ve had the opportunity to try my hand at a wide range of things, developing and honing a diverse set of skills.

Expertise in energy & climate change policy

I blend practical energy and climate policy knowledge with a principled, pragmatic approach to getting results. I have experience with diverse policy approaches for cutting pollution, driving innovation, and adopting behavioural and technology solutions.

Systems-thinking & problem-solving

I am quick to see the big picture and understand how its pieces connect and interact. Able to absorb a breadth and depth of qualitative and quantitative information, I explore relationships and connect the dots, finding creative solutions to challenging problems.

Strategic communications

I am a creative communicator, with the ability to craft accessible messages for specific audiences—from citizens to businesses to policymakers and politicians. In addition to strong writing skills, I’m an experienced public speaker and media spokesperson. 

Managing relationships & building support for durable solutions

With a diplomatic style, I bridge the interests of diverse constituencies, both between various stakeholders, as well as within institutions. Personable and engaging, I build strong, trust-based relationships.

Every client’s needs are different, and so every relationship I have and project I deliver is built-for-purpose, drawing upon my diverse skills, knowledge, and network.

My service offerings include:

STRATEGY – From campaigns to communications, government relations to alliance-building, an effective strategy is central to your success. Using a variety of tools & approaches, I can help you build, execute & evaluate your strategic approach.

COMMUNICATIONS – Effective communication is the bridge between a good idea & a successful idea. By understanding your audience & crafting tailored messages—for briefing notes & opinion editorials, presentations & press releases—I can help ensure your voice is heard.

STAKEHOLDER RELATIONS – Securing durable public policy requires broad support from businesses, associations, & civil society organizations. To achieve this, I can help convene, build bridges & forge effective multi-stakeholder alliances.

RESEARCH – Whether developing policy options or effective messaging, I offer research & analysis that provides the information & insight needed to give you—& those you’re trying to influence—the confidence required to make decisions.

ENGAGING GOVERNMENTS – Relationships with politicians & officials are key—I know what it takes to build & maintain them. I can support your efforts to effectively engage the government, from lobby days to submissions, to helping you prepare for a committee hearing.

And if you need something I don’t offer, I have a diverse group of colleagues willing to partner to build the team you need.
