Throughout my career I have worked with businesses in various markets including: health care, construction, property management, retail, landscaping, building design, planned residential communities, tourism and more. Company sizes have ranged from start-up mom-and-pop operations to larger firms with more than 200 employees.

The marketing and customer relations programs I've participated in have helped increase client's visibility and revenue.  It is personally rewarding to work with companies as they get organized, try new things and find different opportunities.  I take pride in being able to work independently and as a team based on my client's needs.

Versatility is a valuable asset when selecting a consultant to work with.  My experiences have ranged from overseeing the day-to-day operations of a small business to focusing on specific duties like website management, project planning, graphic design and customer relations.

As you know, peer relationships and community connections can be very important when marketing a small business...I have established connections with business peers, local media and trade associates that may provide beneficial opportunities for PR Consulting clients.

On a personal note, I'm married to Andy Rowlson (23 years now!).  We live in Everson with our two great teenagers, Kelsey and Branden.  From time-to-time I peel myself away from work to spend time in the gardening or at our holiday cottage on Whidbey Island.
