About Kendall

As an International Strategic Communications and Publishing consulting, I am a versatile communications manager who has worn many hats. Over more than a decade, I have worked in public, private and nonprofit settings to develop effective messaging that makes a difference.

At my heart, I'm a storyteller, who understands that speaking to an audience is about their reception, not your intention. Whether it's to educate with data, sell your product, or promote your stance, and whether you engage digitally, in print, or via events, the bottom line is: You want to be heard.

My expertise in transforming complex research and policy into accessible, human-centered content has allowed me to specialize in cross-sector publishing, event production, digital strategy, and stakeholder engagement, with a global lens and commitment to evidence-informed storytelling that drives social inclusion and impact.

In these positions, I have:
Managed outreach and community membership.
Increased community engagement via analytics and strategy reports.
Conducted research writing, editing, and online publishing.
Done copywriting for campaigns, newsletters, promotions, and public relations releases.
Managed social media accounts, promoting events, services, and products.
Managed and planned events across educational, international, and hospitality formats.
Moderated website communities & content management for Drupal, Wix and Wordpress (coordinating between house and programmers).

If you think your project could use a reliable and innovative content creator, or a creative problem-solver willing to collaborate on your nuanced vision for communication strategies, reach out and let's have a chat!
