These plans include research on issues and trends, development of a coordinated lobby and grassroots campaign, and targeted legislation or agency actions.

Some of her clients include or have included: Ambulance Association, Association of Community Development Corporations, Daily Court Review, Daily Commercial Recorder, the Council on Family Violence, and the Counseling Association.
A series of talks she presented to the local chapters of a statewide association led 28 out of 35 chapters to find legislative chairs and establish local legislative committees. These committees generated 100 to 200 letters to each of 35 members on two state policy committees and got language into major bills passed by the Legislature.

Thompson Conference Center, Bexar County Hospital, Clemson University, Counseling Association, Delta Kappa Gamma Society International, AMBUCS, and the Public Relations Association.
