Brand + Content Strategy Consultant & Storytelling Leadership Coach

I partner with women leading mission-and-impact-driven organizations to shape and bring their powerful stories to life.

LET'S TALK

Are You…

  • Telling an unclear or unflattering story, in the market or about yourself?

  • Spending too much on marketing and creative vendors and services that don’t deliver and wondering if you have the right internal team resources in place?

  • Wishing you had more trusted support for yourself and your business?

  • Wondering how to enable your marketing, communications, or creative teams to be more innovative and nimble, about AI or otherwise?

Is Your Team…

  • Early in their marketing or creative careers and talented but in need of more guidance, soft and hard skills than you’re able to give?

  • Lacking the resources they need to be successful?

Wouldn’t it be great if you could…

  • Get the coaching and/or consulting support you need for your organization and for yourself, all from the same person?

  • Have a trusted accountability partner to help you finally shape and bring to light your long-imagined, but never achieved goals?

Hello! I’m Dori.

About Me

I’m a brand strategist, content marketing leader, and ICF-certified coach with 20+ years of experience helping small businesses, nonprofits, and household-name brands tell smarter, high-impact stories that connect with audiences, clients, communities, and customers.

My work spans Fortune 100s, SMBs, individual influencers, and mission-driven organizations—but my sweet spot is helping women leaders and their teams unlock clarity, creativity, and momentum.

My own story? It’s a slightly winding one, full of pivots, wins, pain points, and much growth.

In the mid-aughts, I produced Chief Everything Officers: Women Who Do It All and Do It Well for AOL, an early, groundbreaking social media contest sponsored by Dove. Its success led to my appointment as AOL’s first food and lifestyle editorial lead. Before that, I was a freelance writer and stay-at-home mom.

Since then, I’ve held senior roles in content strategy, marketing and brand storytelling, with highlights including:

  • Building an integrated product and content marketing function for Neustar (a TransUnion company), fueling 200+% growth in four years

  • Co-developing a content strategy framework for Novartis, adopted by 100% of its global marketing team in year one

  • Driving CRM success as digital content lead for Kraft Foods’ Food & Family program through innovative, data-driven growth strategies

  • Producing an influencer strategy and contributor network at Martha Stewart Living, supporting its successful acquisition by Dotdash Meredith

  • Developing content and content strategies across industries—from pharma to CPG, tech to financial services, in B2B and B2C

In 2021, I took a life-changing sabbatical. I launched a podcast about the messy middle of life change. I worked with local food justice organizations. (Did I mention I’m a culinary-school-trained chef?) And I trained as an energy leadership coach.

Now, I bring all of it—editorial and brand-level marketing expertise, and deep coaching insights—to help you lead and grow with clarity and confidence.
