Association Marketing and Communications Partnership
Hi, I’m Amanda. I work as an extension of association marketing and communications teams to plan and deliver the content that keeps projects moving and members engaged.
Because I’ve managed the work myself, I step in and take ownership without adding to your workload.
Strategic Support that Gives You the Space to Lead
With the right support in place, you’re not stuck chasing deadlines or managing every detail. You have the space to plan and innovate.
Working with me, organizations have been able to:
Increase Member Engagement and Renewals
Through email campaigns and web copy, my clients have met renewal goals, increased engagement in nurture campaigns and donation appeals, and strengthened visibility for major announcements.
Stay productive through busy and high-pressure seasons
During parental leave coverage and hiring gaps, my clients have maintained momentum through periods of change. I’ve helped them plan marketing content months in advance and freed up internal capacity by taking on time-intensive reporting and coordination.
Improve quality and move ideas forward faster
My clients have simplified updates to crisis communications plans and streamlined feedback processes for hundreds of grant applicants — reducing friction and improving turnaround times.

“Amanda led the communications strategy for the publication of the National Association of Epilepsy Centers’ 2023 evidence-informed practice guidelines for epilepsy centers in the U.S.
I hired Amanda to help us broadly promote the new guidelines. I trusted her to lead the process and move forward seamlessly, involving multiple stakeholders including our team, journal staff, and patients and physicians representatives from the guideline development panel. Our team was pleased with the media coverage and visibility her efforts generated and would recommend her to any association in need of a communications partner.”

About Amanda
I help associations and medical societies communicate more effectively, engage their members, and advance their missions.
With more than 15 years of experience in communications, digital marketing, and development, I’ve worked closely with associations and nonprofit organizations in both consulting and in-house roles. My background includes communications leadership at the American Society of Hematology, as well as other work within the medical specialty society field, giving me an insider’s understanding of the opportunities and challenges you may be facing.
When I’m not working, you’ll find me reading for one of my two book clubs, taking long walks, or exploring the Washington, DC region with my family—preferably on foot. I’m also the mom of two elementary schoolers and an active PTSA volunteer, so I’m always happy to talk about kids, education, and the many ways communities can come together to strengthen public schools.
Even if you don’t have an immediate project in mind, I’d love to connect and hear what you’re working on!
