About Alyssa Towns (Swantkoski)
For nearly the first decade of my career, I supported internal communications in small businesses, from crafting well-written emails to leading communications for significant company changes. I'm a Prosci Certified Change Practitioner and Apogy Certified Change Leader, a former Association of Change Management Professionals (ACMP) Colorado Chapter Board Member, and a current member of the International Association of Business Communicators (IABC) Colorado.
Alongside my corporate work, I started freelancing as a content writer across my areas of expertise: internal communications, change management, time management, productivity, the future of work, and corporate culture.
With a background in psychology, I've always believed that internal communications and change management sit at the heart of creating more human workplaces. I've also learned the hard way — having lost three grandparents in their early-to-mid 60s — that we can't wait until retirement to live the life we want.
That's why I'm on a mission to help improve the 8+ hours we spend at work each day: by writing content about building better workplaces and helping people within organizations communicate more effectively, because life is too short for work to suck!
