June 2023 — As I launch this Communication By Design (CXD) “comprehensive overhaul and brand refresh,” I pause to pay tribute to — and remember with appreciation and gratitude — my original co-creator.

I could not have done it without Nathan Mark (Ned).

My partner in life and work was at my side throughout, and instrumental during all phases of CXD’s birth and growth. From an initial idea (just a gleam in our eyes) and the subsequent leap of faith…to way-down-in-the-trenches development, implementation, and launch.

This update is an expanded next step for sure, but its foundation (core) remains unchanged — and stands strong.

My writer, you are missed.
