As a scientific organization, the work you do can impact the lives of countless people.​

But it must be disappointing when news about your important studies and discoveries rarely make it past the peers who review them or the libraries where they are housed.

Considering the role of science in our daily lives, building an appreciation for STEM content and stories in the mainstream media isn’t just a good thing, it’s critical for advancing careers, driving the industry forward, and informing or educating society.

Improving the way the public engages with STEM means changing the way stories are told and the way messages are presented.

When I first started my business, I knew I needed a website but had no idea how to describe what I do. Over the course of a few meetings, Ms. McDougall helped me clarify my message and she gave me the words I needed to communicate with my ideal client. I was recently featured during a morning show on a local television station. Although I’d never given an interview before, Ms. McDougall prepared me for what to expect and made the process seamless. Not only did she walk me through potential questions and optimal responses, but she also guided me on how to ensure that my message was clearly and succinctly delivered. Ms. McDougall provides individualized feedback and direction to any entrepreneur or company who is committed to reaching their ideal client.
