I didn’t start out to build a social impact communications consultancy, but looking back, every move led me right here. 

#womanownedsmallbusiness #genx #socialimpactbusiness #10fcomms

Where it all began: travel and hospitality PR agencies in New York City. It was fast. It was demanding. And it taught me a lot about how to find the story, to understand different audiences, manage moving pieces, and communicate across time zones.

I always had an interest in history, politics, international affairs, and grassroots community engagement. I followed this pull into getting my Masters at NYU and trying my hand at communications in the humanitarian space. I loved it. Amplifying stories, help drive change … learning and growing as I went along.

With my moves, I noticed the tranche of experience I brought that could be applied in difference ways. Growing nonprofits often need some of the things corporate does really well but you can’t always just drop that framework into the nonprofit space expecting it to work. Especially when building the plane while flying it and responding in real time to policy change and humanitarian disasters. Complexity, though? I thrive in it.

So, I built what I wanted to see with what I’ve learned. A one-woman communications consultancy that borrows from the best of both worlds.

I listen. I dig in. I ask the questions that usually get skipped. Sometimes the problem isn’t the thing everyone’s looking at.

I love threading through the noise, the commotion, the breakdown to figure out what’s really happening. Sometimes it’s a different story  needing to be amplified, sometimes it’s a problem that needs fixing and building. Sometimes it’s both.

10F Communications works with organization doing good that need experienced strategic support and guidance. If that sounds like you, or you’re not sure, let’s talk! DMs are open :)

If you're leading a nonprofit, small business, or community organization, you know the pressure: everyone expects you to show up for every cause, every event, every ask. But community support doesn't have to be loud or expensive to matter.

It has to be consistent.

Pick one small, repeatable thing this month — coffee for the library staff, a study table in your space, a standing volunteer shift. People remember the heart behind small, steady acts of community engagement far more than a one-time banner logo.

This is the difference between community impact and quick-yes: prioritizing what you can sustain to make a real impact over what you feel obligated to say yes to.

You don't have to figure out your community engagement strategy alone. Let's find your one small thing this month.

The rain couldn’t stop Baltimore this weekend. šŸ’™

A little exploration. A little self-care. A lot of community.

From stretching, sipping and a sound bath with @briealexanderwellness and @holmeshydration to a behind-the-scenes look at @sharebabymd, which I’ve been keen to check out (and was, of course, incredible!). This weekend was a good reminder that there are so many ways to connect, contribute, and just be.

More of this, please.

I’m late to the game on this one. Apparently this launched two years ago (sorry, PNC, I’ve been busy) … but some of the entrepreneur and marketing podcasts I listen to have started running this ad, and it just tickles me every time. 

Brilliant. 

When everyone is going after the flashiest, shiniest new objects, PNC leaned completely into the fact that they are steady and established. 

It takes traits some find it trendy to run from and instead, turned it into its power.

If you're leading a global organization or driving large-scale community initiatives, support doesn't have to be loud or hyper-produced to matter. It just has to be consistent.

When we look at sustainable social impact work, the most enduring change rarely happens during highly staged press conferences or polished media rollouts. It happens in the quiet, un-glamorous rooms where people sit down together, listen closely to one another, and build trust over conversation and time. 

As leaders, it's incredibly easy to get caught up in chasing short-term "quick-yes" engagement trends. 

But global movers and local change-makers alike don't remain at the table because of a flashy campaign. They stay because they've built trust in their foundation beneath the narrative. 

True strategy is about cultivating deep, rooted alignment before you ever try to flash out a message. 

When you look at your current community or donor engagement, where are you focusing your energy: on making a louder splash, or on building a deeper foundation?
