Welcome to my company, Ideahaus®.
When I began this company in 1990, I was thrilled to be able to work in any capacity. As I’ve grown so have my opportunities and responsibilities.
Today I work directly with CEO’s, C-Level Communicators and Entrepreneurs to help shape their company and build their brands. I appreciate the life of a creative professional, and in knowing how to deliver the results that positively change companies forever.
The role I serve is as a Communications Director who helps develop communications plan, including schedules, budgets and metrics for everything a company uses to communicate. I work with existing marketing teams to lead the development of most types of creative and communications resources. I’m also responsible for managing the accounts, as needed, as an adjunct to a clients leadership.
My clients tell me they appreciate working directly with me, and the personal service I bring to these relationships. After more than 25 years of professional experience I help them understand each type of communications, their opportunities and how we can utilize all of the resources available to build truly remarkable brands.

Satellite Marketing is a communications strategy designed to connect an organization with its target markets via social media sites and services. These social media sites and services act as marketing sub-stations, or “Satellites”.
Satellites are used in addition to, or in place of, traditional media, such as print, radio, television, direct mail and outdoor advertising. The goal is to expand the reach of the organization and enhance the results by creating relationships.
Satellites offer smaller, faster, dynamic communications opportunities, engaging prospects where they already exist. Social media is among the fastest growing forms of communication today (site reference), with users connecting online for both personal and professional purposes.
