Strategic PR, Comms, Intelligence & Risk Management

I build visibility when it counts — and protect reputations when it’s life or death for your brand, your leadership, or your operations. I’m the Founder of Kronus Communications (PR, media, and reputation strategy) and Kronus Intelligence Group (private intelligence and AI-driven risk ops). Together, my firms serve executives, companies, and organizations operating in high-stakes environments — from national press battles to geopolitical flashpoints. Some of my clients are household names. Some are pre-IPO startups. Others are operating behind the scenes in conflict zones, launching billion-dollar funds, or handling M&A under public scrutiny. I’m brought in when the room gets quiet and everyone wants to know who can handle it. PR & STRATEGIC COMMUNICATIONS This isn’t fluff PR. This is real visibility — built for impact, credibility, and control when the narrative matters most. Who I work with: - Executives and founders building public authority - Product-based companies launching or scaling - Talent and public figures under the spotlight - Teams navigating brand growth, crisis, or investor pressure Core PR Services: - Media Relations — National and trade media coverage that actually matters — engineered, not chased. - Podcast Visibility — We book you on shows your audience trusts — every month. - Press Release Distribution — Strategic news releases that get seen, not deleted. - Media Briefings & Events — Direct access to reporters — virtual or in-person. - Crisis Communications — Rapid, controlled messaging when things go sideways. - Reputation Management — We shape the narrative before it shapes you. - Executive Branding — We build public-facing credibility for founders and leaders. - Thought Leadership Placement — Ghostwritten insights placed in top outlets like Forbes and Fast Company. - Public Speaking Engagements — Keynotes, panels, and podcasts that grow your influence. - Influencer & Brand Relations — Strategic partnerships with people who actually move markets. - Paid Media (Sponsored Content) — Paid content that reads like earned press — because it’s written that way. - Byline & Op-Ed Ghostwriting — Smart content in your voice — published under your name. - Award Submissions — We write and submit to awards that boost credibility. - Product Outreach to Media — We get your product into the right hands — and on the right lists. Proven Wins: - Grew Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson social to 1M+ followers — and drove $300K+ in sponsorships - Tripled media mentions and booked 15+ top podcasts for a dating coach (UVM: 2.5M → 16.74M) - Sold out every show on a major YouTuber’s tour — including a 5,000-seat venue - Secured 1,500+ press hits and Forbes feature for a VC firm launching a $30MM fund - Booked 30+ podcasts and published 10+ bylines for a healthcare founder - Landed 2,000+ press syndications for a cybersecurity CEO; UVM: 29K → 1.02M - Earned coverage in NYT, Bloomberg, Politico, Fox, Daily Mail, The Guardian, The Hill — and more INTELLIGENCE & RISK OPERATIONS I built Kronus Intelligence Group to serve clients where traditional firms fall short — in volatile environments and zero-fail missions. Our work blends elite HUMINT, Tier-1 security, and AI-driven intelligence for real-world impact. Human-Driven Intelligence Services These are the boots-on-the-ground capabilities that set us apart—delivered by operators who’ve worked in the world’s most complex environments. From securing physical sites to protecting executives and decoding financial threats, we bring HUMINT tradecraft into the boardroom. - Corporate & Infrastructure Risk - Threat & Vulnerability Risk Assessments (TVRA) - Corporate Security Assessments - Asset Protection Intelligence - Executive Protection & Secure Travel - Expeditionary Operations - EOTAC (Hostile Travel Training) - Executive Protection Operations - Rapid Corporate Intelligence - Business Intelligence & Investigations - Narrative & Digital Threat Intelligence - Financial Risk Intelligence - Humanitarian Logistics Support - Crisis Preparedness Training AI-Centric Solutions We custom-build AI systems that fuse human logic with machine scale. From field ops to boardrooms, our platforms, agents, and governance systems give leaders the tools to act faster, smarter, and more securely. - AI-Driven Intelligence Systems: - Intelligence Architecture & Data Foundations - Custom Data Pipelines & Ontologies - AI-Ready Integrations - Governance & Scalability - AI Agent Development & Deployment - Flexible Deployment Options - Human-in-the-Loop Learning - Fusion Platforms & Decision Systems - Live Dashboards & Integrated Modeling - AI Oversight, Monitoring & Governance Whether you’re launching a product, navigating a media storm, or building operational resilience — I’m trusted because I deliver. I'm honored every time a founder, executive, or global team hands me their reputation, security, or public voice. If you're ready to work — let’s talk.
