Move Beyond the Archive.

The transition from “Backstory” to “Strategy” requires more than a weekly newsletter. It requires a room, a whiteboard, and a shared commitment to solving the specific bottlenecks holding your organization back.

Whether you are navigating the “Last Mile” of audience engagement or trying to professionalize a civic utility, I help leadership teams and newsrooms find the signal in the noise.

Focus Areas.

  • The Last Mile of Media Resilience: Moving past “hobbyist” models toward sustainable, professionalized infrastructure.

  • The Ethics of Implementation: Practical frameworks for integrating AI and generative tools without losing your editorial soul.

  • Silo-Busting & Board Translation: Specialized tools for internal alignment—stopping “Board-Speak” from killing your best strategic ideas.

  • The Future of the Industry: A “backstory” briefing for students and early-career professionals on navigating a shifting, AI-influenced media landscape.

Who I Work With. I am at my best when speaking with Editorial Boards, Media Founders, and Product Teams who are tired of “one-size-fits-all” KPIs. I also frequently engage with:

  • Industry Conferences: Keynotes and panels focused on the intersection of media ethics, business sustainability, and product innovation.

  • The Next Generation: Guest lectures and workshops for Journalism Students who want to understand the “strategy” behind the stories they’ll soon be telling.

Let’s find the backstory.
