I am a Boston-based communications and marketing consultant with experience in book and magazine publishing, digital marketing, nonprofit fundraising, impact storytelling, political campaigns, and organizational strategy. I’m the founding editor of The Critical Flame, an online journal of criticism, literary nonfiction, and interviews, as well as the Director of Marketing and Communications for Essential Partners.
Somehow, in addition to my primary job as a dad, I also find time to write and translate poetry and pen book reviews. You can find my publications here. In 2010, I founded the U35 reading series, now run by Mass Poetry, to promote and support younger poets. I have served as a Board Member of VIDA: Women in Literary Arts as well as Salamander Magazine, and in an advisory capacity to AGNI Magazine. In 2017, I helped organize and played the role of emcee for Greater Boston Writers Resist, a sold-out reading held at the Boston Public Library. Later that same year, I was elected to serve a four-year term as Trustee of the Watertown Free Public Library.
As a consultant, I have supported numerous communications, marketing, and publicity campaigns. I have coordinated major public events; designed, edited, and produced print and digital media (websites, ads, video, flyers, pamphlets, and more); helped to organize national fundraising efforts; written general organizational communications and marketing copy; and honed social media and email newsletter systems and strategies. I have experience with MailChimp, Constant Contact, Pardot, WordPress, Drupal, Adobe Creative Suite, and Descript, among other tools.
