Relocating to Nebraska

After nearly three years at the United States Olympic Committee in Colorado Springs, Colorado, I am relocating to Bellevue, Nebraska, in January 2015, and am seeking new opportunities in the Omaha area. My experience includes communications, digital media, marketing, public relations and social media.

But I am not a guru, a ninja or a rock star. I am a storyteller. My specialty is helping Olympic and Paralympic athletes use their stories to engage and inspire fans, journalists and sponsors. But I want my next story to be focused on your organization.

Currently the U.S. Paralympics communications manager at the USOC, my professional experience in storytelling dates back to 1999, when I helped launch Figure Skaters Online, an online news network that also provides digital and social media services to athletes. I have traveled worldwide and to cities across the United States to help tell Team USA’s stories on and off the field of play.

My storytelling, primarily on the digital fronts, including Facebook and Twitter, has helped figure skating and softball athletes and supporters find their voice online and has lead the Paralympic Movement to an all-time high in public awareness in the United States.

When can I help your organization find its voice?
