Overview
I serve as a Fractional Chief Communications Officer (CCO) and Fractional Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) to healthcare and mission‐driven organizations that need senior‐level brand and growth leadership—but don’t need (or can’t justify) a full‐time executive. In practice, that means stepping in 15–30 hours per week to clarify your positioning, align marketing to revenue and philanthropy, elevate executive visibility, and build scalable communications systems that drive measurable growth and trust.

I serve as a Fractional Chief Communications Officer (CCO) and Fractional Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) to healthcare and mission‐driven organizations that need senior‐level brand and growth leadership—but don’t need (or can’t justify) a full‐time executive. In practice, that means stepping in 15–30 hours per week to clarify your positioning, align marketing to revenue and philanthropy, elevate executive visibility, and build scalable communications systems that drive measurable growth and trust. Over more than two decades working with CEOs, founders, and boards, I’ve seen a consistent pattern: the moments that matter most—repositioning, market expansion, rapid growth, reputation risk, transformation—rarely wait for a six‐month executive search. Organizations need experienced leadership immediately. That’s where I operate. My work spans healthcare systems, Medicare Advantage, digital health, public health initiatives, nonprofits, and high‐growth, mission‐driven organizations—highly regulated, high‐stakes environments where clarity, compliance, and credibility are non‐negotiable. I don’t just build campaigns. I build growth architecture: ► Messaging and narrative frameworks aligned to business objectives ► Demand engines tied to clear KPIs and dashboards ► Executive visibility and thought‐leadership platforms that elevate authority ► Earned media strategies that expand influence and protect reputation ► Integrated marketing and communications systems designed to scale The impact has been concrete, including: ► Multi‐million organic impressions and expanded share of voice ► Six‐figure enrollment growth without paid advertising ► Double‐digit expansion in competitive markets ► Industry‐leading conversion performance ► National recognition at the highest levels I also bring a national professional network of 27.5K+ targeted micro‐influencers that can amplify visibility and accelerate distribution when the strategy calls for it. If your organization is navigating growth, change, or a critical inflection point—and needs strategic communications and marketing leadership that can execute from day one—I welcome the conversation. I’m primarily focused on fractional CCO/CMO engagements and remain open to the right full‐time executive opportunity where impact, values, and alignment are clear. Let’s build momentum—strategically.
