“AJ’s wisdom shines in many areas of communications and marketing, with abundant know-how and firsthand experience in Crisis Communications. Her facilitation of Crisis Communications procedures and best practices is evidence-based, actionable, and concise, allowing people with varying levels of comfort with the subject to learn in a hands-on didactic environment. I have personally learned most of what I know about brand Crisis Communications from AJ, and am grateful to feel more empowered and prepared to support my team, whatever the external climate brings our way.”

“Onboarding three new members of my organization’s Leadership Team to their roles in the Emergency Response Plan felt daunting. Partnering with Riverstart Collective allowed me to learn alongside my team, not only growing our confidence with crisis communications and reputation management, but also prompting thoughtful discussions about how these concepts touch our day-to-day work. AJ is compassionate, asked tough questions for our team to work through, and is an expert in this field. I would recommend these workshops to any team, regardless of tenure, looking to hone their emergency preparedness and build crisis communication skills.”
