Public Relations

I’m sharing this Easter worship video I developed as part of my P.R. and marketing work for my client, the Church of the Redeemer. I project-managed and provided editorial oversight, and was lucky to work with a fantastic local production team. I particularly enjoyed the final editing process. Whether video has a more formal feel, [...]

EYP Energy — a division of EYP, Inc., my longest-term client (based in New York) — has announced a strategic merger with The Weidt Group, one of the nation’s premier building energy consulting firms, currently headquartered in Minnesota, with additional offices in Colorado, Iowa and Wisconsin.

EYP client sweeps Zweig Letter marketing awards
EYP Architecture & Engineering (my longest-term client) just swept a series of marketing awards handed out by The Zweig Letter, a weekly publication dedicated to the architecture/engineering industry.

Wishing for “a life lived in the land of enough”? Yeah, me too. That’s why I encourage you to watch this very unique and gently inspiring video by Theresa Rose, who gave a talk in December at the TEDxSarasota event.

How I learned to ‘Get Things Done’

So sweet, so soft, so near; it draws me away to the doorway and I search the surrounding bushes for the source of that singing. I finally spot [...]
