I Design Internal Comms Systems Employees Trust.

Enterprise internal communications strategy, executive messaging, and employee platform leadership for complex organizations.

I’ve spent most of my career thinking about how organizations communicate with their employees.

Across most companies, internal communication happens across dozens of platforms - internal sites, HR systems, and messaging channels.

Even when the content is well written, the experience often feels fragmented and difficult for employees to navigate.

Over the past 15 years, I’ve worked at the intersection of internal communications, executive messaging, and employee platforms, helping organizations bring clarity to those environments.

My focus is helping companies connect leadership priorities to employee understanding by designing communication systems that make it easier for people to find information, understand strategy, and do their work.

Do employees actually understand what their organization is trying to do?

My work focuses on one question:

What I Do

  • Designing communication systems that connect leadership priorities to employee understanding.

  • Helping leaders translate complex strategy into narratives employees can trust and act on.

  • Transforming internal platforms into strategic communication hubs rather than static information repositories.

  • Supporting transformation initiatives with clear, structured internal communication frameworks.

  • Moving internal communications beyond page views toward adoption, understanding, and trust.

Experience & Impact

I currently lead HR communications strategy for Gilead Sciences’ global ServiceNow employee platform, supporting more than 20,000 employees across multiple business functions.

My work focuses on integrating HR services, leadership messaging, and employee communications into a unified digital experience that helps employees navigate complex systems and better understand organizational priorities.

Across my career, I’ve focused on building internal communication environments that scale to help organizations move from fragmented messaging toward clear, integrated communication systems.

• Internal communication platforms supporting 20,000+ employees globally
• Executive advisory across healthcare, life sciences, and technology organizations
• Governance frameworks aligning communications across HR, IT, and operational teams
• Analytics models measuring internal communication effectiveness and adoption

Before entering corporate communications leadership, I spent more than a decade in journalism and newsroom leadership roles. That foundation continues to shape my approach to communications today: clarity, credibility, and storytelling that serves the audience first.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Most organizations don’t need more strategy decks or more content. They need systems that connect the two.

    My work focuses on designing how communications functions operate, then applying that structure to real initiatives so strategy actually shows up in execution.

  • Traditional internal communications often prioritize output.

    I prioritize experience, adoption, and trust. This means thinking about governance, platforms, measurement, and how employees actually interact with information - not just what gets published.

  • I’m most effective in complex environments - organizations navigating transformation, growth, regulatory pressure, or cultural change - where communications must scale without losing clarity or credibility.

  • Innovation only matters if it improves how people work. I focus on operationalizing AI and new tools in practical ways - improving discoverability, reducing friction, and strengthening trust - rather than adopting technology for its own sake.

  • Content Cerebrum is where I think publicly. It’s a space to explore the patterns, challenges, and realities of enterprise content and internal communications in a way that’s grounded in lived experience, informed by data, and focused on building intentional systems rather than chasing volume.

  • Effective communications help people understand what’s happening, why it matters, and what to do next without unnecessary noise. When communications work well, employees trust the experience, leaders see measurable impact, and organizations move with greater confidence.
