I'm co-founder and president/CEO of Forge Communications, a reputation design and management consulting firm based in Raleigh. I've worked in the Raleigh public relations market since 1985 when I joined Epley Associates, Inc. after finishing undergrad and graduate degrees at UNC. While I've worked with a broad range of industries in both the public and private sectors, I have extensive experience in the biotech, healthcare, finance, transportation and environmental management areas. Past and current clients include BB&T, Carolinas HealthCare System, Chem-Nuclear Systems, Colonial Pipeline, Community Care of N.C., GSK, Novozymes, Quintiles Transnational Corp., the Regional Transportation Alliance and Waste Industries. 

I'm also a professional guitarist and serious music geek. Guilty as charged.
