Meet your Translator
Early in my career, when I would explain what I did for a living, several people nicknamed me the "engineering interpreter." It turned out I had a natural knack for translating the work of the technical experts I worked with into a common language that made sense to everyone else. I realized that while technical experts know exactly what they do, communicating that value to the general public requires a different kind of playbook.
As an English major turned AEC marketing leader—and an adult-learned hockey player turned youth coach—my entire career has been built on finding the common thread. I bridge the gap between complex data and human connection, ensuring your firm speaks directly to the people who need you.
After more than 20 years helping technical professionals communicate their value, I founded CommonThread Marketing to help organizations tell their stories more clearly, build stronger relationships, and connect with the people they serve.
