Helping Series A, Series B, and pre-IPO companies build trust and get noticed.
Since 2012, I've worked with award-winning agencies; politicians and government organizations; CEOs of publicly traded companies; and, executive teams at VC-funded startups to create and lead public relations and strategic communications strategies that generate public interest, build trust, and drive business outcomes.
My work and insights have been featured in publications such as Reuters, PRWeek, Fast Company, Forbes, The Washington Post, Business Insider, and many others.
I currently operate J_ZA Public Relations, a boutique strategic communications and public relations consultancy based in Denver, CO, where I focus largely on media relations, thought leadership, ESG and cause communications, and data-driven campaigns.
Matter Unlimited is a social impact communications and creative agency. My clients included Tyson Foods, Institute for Healthcare Improvement, Council for Inclusive Capitalism, and CareQuest Innovation Partners.
