I like to work with people more than I like to work for people.
I'm focused on true impact and futures thinking—how to create natural systems change in a viable way that improves our prospects and helps overcome some of the trauma negatively impacting people and other forms of life.
I'm seasoned in my work and able to adapt to ambiguity that often comes with risk and trying new things. Doubling down on a status quo that is losing fit for purpose is what I try to avoid.
I'm always eager to meet new people and talk about collaborating or identifying ways to be more effective.
Ways we can
work together.
Content & Copywriting
A curious, inquisitive mind that understands how to think well is the foundation for writing and copy that is clever, when necessary, but always clear and flowing from word-to-word, sentence-to-sentence. This is what you will receive when you work with me.
For multiple decades, I’ve been intentionally engaged in the craft of copywriting, copy editing, ghostwriting, technical and academic writing, and other forms of expression. I stay tuned into a broad variety of issues which gives me depth and breadth in my understanding of the world—and the writing meant to accompany it.
Communications & Public Relations Support
My Accreditation in Public Relations (APR) underscores my commitment to the evolving field of communications and public relations. I can support you in a multitude of approaches from media relations, crisis management, marketing promotion and branding, to creating proper messaging around an issue to ensure authenticity and ethical understanding.
Individual Leadership Impact Development
Leadership impact is a journey, and I can guide you on a path to success. It takes time to create the roots that lead to deeper thinking and understanding about how you show up in the world. I can help you find your audience and network with people who will move your message forward. I help make good people even better. In a world of noise and “social influence” I can help you make the change you want to see.
Mentorship & Changemaking
Are you looking to make change? Do you need focused guidance on how to become what you are meant to be? The latent charisma inside you may not always be near the surface, but I can help you map it out so you can bring it into the world.
Joel is an incredibly talented and versatile communications professional. His ability to challenge our group with innovative thinking, as well as his battle-tested background, makes him an indispensable team player.”
