A Little About Me
As the leader of Sandbank Group, I bring decades of strategic communications and public affairs expertise spanning the military, federal government, and corporate sectors. My background fuses high-stakes crisis management, executive leadership, and digital strategy to help organizations navigate complex issues and build trust when it matters most.
My education and specialized training provided the groundwork for my career. I earned a Bachelor’s degree in Journalism from Howard University, a Master’s in Organizational Leadership from Northcentral University, and completed advanced public and external affairs qualifications through the Defense Information School (DINFOS) and FEMA’s Emergency Management Institute.
My professional experience spans both high-level civilian leadership and operational military environments:
