About Jamie

Jamie understands the value of strategic approaches to public relations in maximizing messaging and influencing change and opinion. He has the instincts of a journalist and the see-around-corners ability of a skilled issues manager who relishes ensuring that the right messages are in the right places at the right times. As a former news reporter and editor, Jamie is also a media relations expert with an inside-out perspective of the news world, an addiction to editing and a love affair with Associated Press style.

• For 22 years, Jamie served at every level of the newsroom, including for the largest newspaper company in the United States — writing, assigning and editing thousands of stories, leading high-impact projects and earning local, state and national awards.

• After his journalism career, he directed communications for three agricultural organizations for more than seven years, focusing on media relations, issues management, crisis response and public affairs in support of member projects and local, state and federal government relations. His media relations work alone drove millions of dollars in publicity value.

• Jamie has experience with businesses, trade associations and nonprofit groups in a variety of industry sectors and service areas, with particular expertise in agriculture, food, government, politics and sustainability.

• He works independently or alongside clients’ communications professionals depending on the size and scope of the project.
