Alert the media…
I love a good media win. I have a solid understanding of the media landscape, the dynamics of a newsroom, and how to navigate media relationships successfully. As a result, I’ve secured hundreds of articles, broadcast segments, op-eds and other coverage for my clients in the past. I have also worked to ensure the best outcomes possible for clients in time of crisis and have worked with local, regional, and national publications like The New York Times and Washington Post to present the facts and clear any misconceptions.
Here are just a few of my media wins:

In the past, I worked with Ochsner Health system to ensure that the region is informed on all topics related to the COVID-19 pandemic including events like this vaccination site at the New Orleans French Market.
Worked with a small team, to execute a full, regional media blitz ahead of WresteMania 34. This Krewe of Boo appearance of WWE Superstar The Miz was the first of many media events leading up to this huge sports entertainment event.
Assisted with media training ahead of a New Orleans chef's appearance on The Today Show. I have also assisted public figures, CEOs and other executive leadership teams with media training in times of crisis and transition.
