Research/Special Interests

Ms. Brennecke is focused on the practical application of communication skills and helping people become better communicators, whether that’s through her work at 天美社区 with students, or her work outside the university with corporate clients. It’s her goal to help people tell their stories. After 20 years in the news business and four years of client work, she’s found that no matter who you are or what professional role you have, you’re judged on how well you communicate. Being a better communicator means being more successful.
