DIALOG

DIALOG is one of Canada’s premier architecture and design firms with offices in cities across North America. The firm’s portfolio includes higher education, arts and culture, commercial, civic, laboratory, healthcare, sports arenas, parks and playgrounds. Dedicated to high quality sustainable design, adaptive reuse, urban revitalization, and regenerative design, the firm collaboratives with clients, communities and ecosystems to improve urban habitats. I work with the Chair of DIALOG and the in-house comms team to develop thought leadership for a variety of media, including guest essays and case studies for the World Economic Forum and other publications.  

Rogers Partners

  For Rogers Partners Architects+Urban Designers, founded in 2013 by Rob Rogers based on 25 years of experience, I collaborated with the leadership of the firm on a combination of deadline-driven and longer-term communications and business development goals. This includes crafting thought leadership pieces, such as this op-ed about the importance of rebuilding urban manufacturing.  Other projects include devising RFP response strategies, creating marketing collateral and messaging documents, cultivating speaking opportunities, and forging connections to assemble multi-disciplinary teams. This work was primarily focused on public realm and resilient design projects, social infrastructure and educational facilities.

YRG Sustainability

YRG Sustainability (bought by WSP) was a sustainability consulting firm with offices in New York, Chicago, Denver and Portland. I worked with the principals to update the firm profile, approach language and project pages, as well as drafted language for RFPs. Utilizing my contact list, I initiated business development meetings for founding principal Lauren Yarmuth. I also pitched media stories, including this piece in Architectural Record, as well as an op-ed by Lauren Yarmuth in EDC, the official magazine for LEED professionals.
