Hey! I’m Ann - So nice to meet you!
Let’s work together to build your platform, audience, & business.
When I was a kid, I read so much that my parents forced me to put down my book at the dinner table, at bedtime, at parties, in gym class…..!
I still always have a book with me - although now I use Kindle or Audible.
Naturally, I eventually realized that I wanted to be a writer and built a blog. As I built my blog, I realized that today’s writers, authors, podcasters, and thought leaders have to be digital strategists too. We have to advocate for our work and cultivate our communities of readers and listeners.
I built Powerhouse Strategy because I wanted to share my knowledge about digital strategy with my favorite people—other writers, authors, thought leaders, and media entrepreneurs.
We cater to thought leaders, authors, speakers, and podcasters who aim to sell more books, engage more readers, listeners, or students, and build a financially sustainable career. We're all about making it easy for you to grow your audience and financial successs, giving your digital presence—website, newsletters, social strategy—a major glow-up.

“Ann is incredibly professional, communicative, and organized. She will listen and think about how you should present yourself to your industry and turn that into a gorgeous online home base to which you will be proud to direct people.”
Chandler Baker, New York Times best-selling author of Whisper Network
“Ann really showed me what my website could be. I had no idea how much more cohesive the flow could be, but she’s a natural at it! What would have taken me months on months and hiring out multiple people, she was able to accomplish is record time. Her understanding of my business and goals were immediate and she was able to make a huge impact on my business.”
Natasha Arora, founder of bZAI
“Ann is a savvy user and adviser about all things social media, from websites to blogs to social media strategy. Her laser advice and patient explanations clarified my newsletter and blog options and broadened my writers' group's view of social media. I highly recommend her for helpful 1:1 support as well as enlightening presentations to groups.”
