Hi! I'm Jen, the founder of Bright Island Communications
Are you a university research group, non-profit, monitoring and evaluation consultancy, or other social impact organization?
You know your work is having an impact. But finding the right words to communicate that impact can be stressful, indeed.
We can help with that.
At Bright Island Communications, we are passionate about the art and science of communication. Our mission is to use our talents to support organizations like yours that are making a positive difference in our communities and our world.
Our expertise is in grant and proposal writing, monitoring and evaluation reports, white papers, content writing, digital stories, editing, infographics, and more.

We specialize in developing engaging reports and proposals, combining compelling evidence with meaningful narratives and storytelling to communicate your impact. Our compelling reports will engage your target audience and convey your most powerful results in memorable ways.

Associate Professor of Epidemiology

​
"I direct a large interdisciplinary public health research team at Arizona State University. We are dedicated to promoting equity by coproducing research with nonacademic collaborations. One way that we do this is by putting increased focus on stakeholder and engagement outputs such as lay publications, blogs, and websites. Bright Island Communications has been invaluable to our team over the past two years with copy editing, writing, and storytelling. Most recently, Jen helped us design a digital storytelling website to accompany a recent scientific manuscript to increase the accessibility of our findings. She is thoughtful, creative, professional, and a joy to work with."
WHAT & WHERE IS THE BRIGHT ISLAND?
Bright Island is what I call my rural sanctuary on Faial, an island in the Portuguese archipelago of the Azores. A volcanic outcropping in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, Faial can sometimes feel like a solitary place. But at the intersection of the Eurasian, African, and North American tectonic plates, it is also very much a place of connections.
As the site of the world's very first transatlantic communication cable, the island has a long history of promoting effective electronic communication. Embodying that spirit, I operate my digital health communications business from my island home office.
