Meet Amy

I’m Amy Higgs — a business consultant and communications strategist with more than 20 years of experience helping organizations bring clarity to their message and purpose to their work. My career has always centered around one mission: use the power of communication to build connection, trust and momentum.

Born and raised in Louisville, I’ve spent my entire career telling stories that move people — from business journalism to nonprofit outreach to executive-level brand strategy. I’ve led transformation efforts for major organizations, managed countless projects with many moving parts, and helped leaders shape — and share — their vision.

Today, I pair that foundation with advanced training in artificial intelligence, helping organizations to not only communicate better — but operate better as a whole.
