Meet Porsha
Strategy grounded in newsroom instincts and executive-level counsel.
I am a senior communications leader with more than 10 years of experience across journalism, public relations and government. I have led communications for the nation's largest state-regulated medical cannabis program and reported from the front lines of politics, public health and breaking news.
That combination means I know how to identify the stories that matter, anticipate difficult questions and build communications that are both credible and useful. I bring a calm, direct approach to complex work and a firm belief that strong communication starts with listening.
