“Synergy is what happens when one plus one equals ten or a hundred or even a thousand!” – Dr. Stephen R. Covey

{connect. engage. collaborate. repeat.}

It's been a blast...but traditional marketing is hardly relevant anymore in our real-time world. So, I do it differently​ now - targeting, connecting and engaging with an ever-expanding network of influencers/advocates [8,182 followers] through what I trust is authentic helpfulness and meaningful content. These are challenging times in Louisiana - especially as our economy and communities once again strive to recover and rebuild.

I'm passionate about developing strategy for population health, managed care and causes -- integrating: influencer marketing; brand development; digital & content marketing; social media; media relations; and occasionally... highly-targeted, direct response campaigns.

For 30+ years, I’ve directed successful campaigns for public, private and non-profit organizations -- contributing to start-ups, product launches, turnarounds, public offerings, brand re-positioning, market share shifts, and fundraising. I’ve also provided strategy for sales teams in the healthcare products/services industries.

Employers/clients include: Ochsner Health Plan, Humana, Peoples Health, Archdiocese of New Orleans, LHC Group, AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals, West Jefferson Medical Center, Kushner Heart Clinic, JEDCO, Tenet Healthcare, CHRISTUS Health, Daughters of Charity Health Centers, and now Smoking Cessation Trust and Orleans Parish Medical Society.

Grass roots marketing, media relations and communications strategies that I orchestrated played a significant role in the start-up and launches of Louisiana Health Cooperative and St. Bernard Parish Hospital - which now brings healthcare and peace-of-mind back home to a proud community once devastated by Katrina.

I look forward to connecting, engaging and collaborating with like missions and causes.
