Communications strategist

The best communications strategies start with the right questions.

My roots are in journalism. Curiosity drives my process. I ask questions, dig deep, and get up to speed quickly.

Whether you're building something from scratch, launching a new initiative, or looking for the best way to connect with the people who need to hear your message, I'll work with you to develop a strategy and bring it to life.

Jacki Schechner

I’m a former national news correspondent who went on to lead communications for the largest healthcare reform campaign in the country.

I later built a high-profile national security news operation, served as VP of communications and marketing for one of the nation’s largest Planned Parenthood affiliates, and ran domestic communications for the world’s largest HIV/AIDS healthcare nonprofit.

I’ve also spent more than a decade consulting for nonprofits, think tanks, startups, and established companies.
