Meet Melanie Taplett
Communications Pro. Storyteller. Mom.
I love storytelling. After majoring in journalism at the University of Texas at Austin, I started my career as a reporter covering business, politics, civics, lifestyle, and health. That's where I honed my investigative listening and writing skills, learning the informative power of great reporting.
From the newsroom, I moved to the corporate boardroom of healthcare, professional services, energy, and manufacturing industries, where I enjoyed the details, challenges, and quick thinking.
Today, I provide corporate communication executives with senior-level communication support. Examples include:
· COVID-19 communications
· ESG (environmental, social, and governance) stories
· Trade media outreach
· Website copy development
· Communication assessments
· Internal communications strategy and stories
My goal remains to connect corporate stories to the right audiences and advance business outcomes.
I enjoy spending time with my family, cheering on my son at his swim meets, exercising, and traveling.
