About Elizabeth Heubeck

I’m a journalist and communications consultant with over 15 years of writing and strategic communications experience. For national and local media outlets, I\'ve explored a range of topics, from female truckers and race car drivers to a fraternity that began in the Middle Ages and remains relevant today. I\'ve had the privilege of writing on sensitive subjects, from the devastating effects of heroin in a Baltimore suburb to the impact of intimate partner violence. I excel at pitching timely stories, identifying expert sources, working with art professionals to create visually compelling articles, and managing multiple deadlines simultaneously. I thrive on telling human interest stories about individual people and organizations affected by sweeping policies, and enjoy mentoring emerging professionals as they launch their careers.
