About Charliese.
Throughout my 16-year career as a communications professional, I've built my path around the same throughline: turning curiosity and creativity into measurable outcomes. That's taken me across local government, a presidential foundation, PR agencies, and higher education—building communications and stakeholder engagement functions from the ground up, not just executing within them.
One thing has stayed constant across every stage of my career: I do my best work when I have autonomy, a range of relationships, and problems worth solving. Consulting lets me bring that same energy to organizations on a project basis, for the right fit.
I work in two forms: strategic consulting from the outside, and hands-on, contract-based support embedded inside your team, depending on what the project actually needs.
