THE STAKES COULD NOT BE HIGHER

Abby is a joy to work with. She was my partner in a client engagement, and I was so grateful to be matched with her. Abby's sharp analysis and extensive experience is rivaled only by her warmth. Because of her authenticity, we were able to communicate honestly and openly. This reduced our engagement time significantly, producing the desired results quickly. I would love the opportunity to work with Abby again and recommend her highly.

Abby is the true epitome of a trusted advisor and partner. She is skilled at navigating the complexity of today's social and racial justice landscape, and her experience is at the forefront of how to meaningfully embed and foster authentic conversations about DEI in the workplace. In addition to her expertise, what I also appreciate about Abby is her responsiveness, empathy and ability to listen deeply to identify the needs of a given situation. She is a dynamic and thoughtful leader, strategist and communicator, and I look forward to working with her again in the future.

I strongly recommend Abby as a senior consultant in the communications, DE&I and healthcare/pharma PR spaces. I have known Abby for nearly 20 years, having worked together on a high-profile account team for a pharmaceutical client at MS&L NYC, which she led. We were also peers at Weber Shandwick NYC. Most recently, we reconnected as we are both members of the executive women leadership organization, Chief, and through our personal and professional commitment to DE&I. Abby is not only an effective strategist and leader, but she is also an ambassador of inclusivity and an influencer in the space. She's someone who I've looked up to through the years. I'm grateful for her example of what it means to be a strong leader in the communications industry.

I’ve had the chance to work with Abby twice: the first time we worked at the same agency and the second, when she advised me in my communications role at a biotech. Abby is a strategic and creative problem solver; a thoughtful partner to her peers and a staunch advocate for those who report to her. She cares deeply about doing things the right way vs doing things the easy way and knows how to effectively counsel her clients on challenging subjects. I cannot think of a better leader to call a trusted advisor and counselor for healthcare comms. She helps clients see gaps and blind spots, ensuring they communicate with authenticity.

Working with Abby during my time at Real Chemistry was an absolute pleasure! As an industry veteran and expert in healthcare, Abby not only served as a mentor for myself and many other young professionals of color, but she also drove forward new and exciting DEI, health equity and thought leadership opportunities for the company and clients every step of the way, including launching the the company's DEI practice. She is a true rockstar and a boss!

To sum it up, Abby is well-known and respected for her dedication as a mentor, commitment to diversity and inclusion and deep healthcare experience. She brings all of these assets to the table to create an inspiring environment for both the teams she leads and the clients she serves. Whether it's perspective on leadership or a question about a nuance in the healthcare industry, I'm lucky to have learned from her as a manager, and now lucky to have her as a friend.

I have known Abenaa for more than a decade and she is an example of what it means to be a true strategic partner - one who takes the time to understand your business, your people and how the values and goals of both must be aligned to drive meaningful change. She is an experienced communicator, DEI&A and health equity strategist who is able to, through that lens, build internal and external brand reputation, relevance and equity, as well as think differently about how to maximize program value.

Abenaa is a deeply thoughtful and skilled communicator who can seamlessly shift from big picture strategic thinking to tactical execution. I first met Abenaa in Edelman’s Health practice and she quickly stood out as someone who would challenge the status quo by encouraging teams to think creatively about defining and integrating equity across domains. Most recently, I’ve benefited from her workshops and thought leadership perspectives, especially during my time at an emerging health startup that was focused on integrating diversity, equity and inclusion into their fast-growing internal culture as well as responding to social justice issues. Abenaa was a quick collaborator and gave useful and actionable frameworks and considerations which helped us respond in a responsible and authentic way.

The critical difference between working with Abenaa and other DEI consultants in this space is that she was deeply aware of our product and our “why.” Because of her dedication to ensuring that she understood our ecosystem, she was able to make recommendations that were not only insightful and inclusive, but actionable.

Abenaa is a trusted advisor and strategic communications powerhouse who provides counsel through the lens of impact and inclusion. Her deep experience and cross-sector knowledge was critical and helping our executive team crystallize a mission and a purpose-aligned strategy that met the needs of our stakeholders, and reflected our brand. Her counsel was clear, honest and focused, which allowed us to show up in the most authentic way.ription goes here

Abby was a critical partner to our executive team in creating a holistic communications and stakeholder strategy that ensured we were able to meet the moment and establish Sobi as an employer brand. As a result of her partnership and support, Sobi has a strategy and narrative that further establishes us in the market, celebrates the perspectives and experiences of our people and patient community. Abby’s deep experience in healthcare, inclusion and stakeholder engagement, makes her a trusted and innovative strategist that can advance a company’s business and culture strategy in support of their people, communities and customers.

A true strategic advisor, Abby brings clarity, creativity, and deep care to every aspect of brand storytelling. Her ability to craft narratives that are both resonant and inclusive made her an invaluable partner in shaping Quilt's voice for social media, our website, and pitch collateral. With deep expertise in communications strategy, Abby delivered while ensuring we carefully connected the dots between message, audience, and impact.

Abenaa is the perfect mix of creativity and pragmatism when it comes to crafting strategies that support business, brands and culture. She was able to take an employee engagement ask and apply it to our start up’s larger business objectives. As a result, we were able to create a refreshed company positioning, narrative and comms strategy that supported our internal and external needs.
