Public Communication Initiative

I am the founder and Director of the Public Communication Initiative, housed in UNLV's Greenspun College of Urban Affairs. The PCI conducts research, hosts workshops, creates content, and provides community outreach related to public communication, storytelling, translation of technical topics to public audiences, media and social media, and persuasion.
