Writer. Strategist. Researcher.
Thought Leadership Partner & Co-Writer
Workshop Facilitator & Culture Builder
Oh, hi. I’m Heather!
(M.A., SHRM-SCP)
From stages to conference rooms (and even group texts), I like to write and tell stories. For nearly two decades, I’ve helped leaders and brands find the right words and the right ways to connect. Collaborating with leaders on executive communications, social strategy, storytelling workshops, manuscripts, and TEDx talks, my work has consistently centered on helping others find their voice while making complex ideas clear, human, and impactful. I channel this deep experience into partnering with organizations to build workplaces where people and performance can thrive.
With a master’s in Positive Organizational Psychology and ongoing Ph.D. research at Claremont Graduate University on the impact of leader storytelling, I bring both a creative and scientific lens to leadership development, employee experience, and culture transformation. I partner with companies and executives to align narrative with strategy, elevate internal communication, and support meaningful organizational change.
Personally, I have two dumb cats, a tendency to spill things, and an absurd pin collection.
Strategic Comms
I use organizational psychology insights to help leaders and organizations communicate with clarity and purpose, and internally to align culture and externally to inspire action. Whether shaping brand voice, navigating change, or building a thought leadership platform, I bring editorial precision and strategic depth to every message.
Communicate
Writing Support
I help entrepreneurs, executives, and experts turn their ideas into compelling content—from bestselling books to standout digital platforms—by combining narrative craft, editorial rigor, and subject-matter expertise. Whether ghostwriting a manuscript or developing copy across channels, I bring a storyteller’s touch and a strategist’s eye to every project.
Write
Workshops & Coaching
I lead workshops and coaching engagements that use storytelling as a powerful tool for leadership, culture-building, and change. Whether guiding teams through narrative alignment or helping leaders clarify their voice and vision, I combine organizational psychology with creative strategy to foster trust, purpose, and transformation.
Workshop
Research & Evaluation
Currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Positive Organizational Psychology, my research focuses on the impact of leader storytelling on employee experience. I offer research and evaluation services that bridge academic rigor with real-world relevance. I bring deep expertise in organizational psychology, storytelling, and applied research to every project.
