Communications Consulting

I worked with elected officials on provincial and civic projects that ranged from Rails to Trails development to heritage restoration. This included arranging news conferences, speech writing and briefing papers for cabinet ministers and their staff. I also provided strategic communication services for candidates running in provincial and civic elections.
