Transforming brands, one story at a time

Welcome to DGW Marketing and Communications! I help organizations grow through powerful storytelling and strategic insight.

Every brand has a unique story to tell, and I'm here to help you share yours. Maybe you're navigating a big change, refreshing how you talk about yourself, or getting ready for what's next. Or maybe you just need an experienced extra pair of hands. 


Think of me as your brand's personal storyteller and partner. The person you meet on the first call is the person doing the work. Through a blend of creativity and strategy, I'll help you tell your story in a way that resonates, inspires and builds your business.

Get started

I work best with people who have something important to say

Nonprofits and mission-driven organizations

You're doing work that matters, and your story has to reach funders, partners, staff and the public. I help you say it clearly, especially when the organization itself is changing.

B2B and professional services

Consultancies, design studios, insurers, advisory firms, plus technology and AI companies, too. When what you sell is expertise or something complex, how you explain it matters. I've spent years inside firms like yours, and I know how to make complicated things sound human.

Founders and local businesses

Agencies that need an extra hand

You know what you do is good. I help you figure out what to call it, who it's for and why it's different, then put that into words people remember.

Big pitch, short-staffed team, a client who needs more senior attention. I can plug in under your name or mine, and I'll make you look good.

External and internal communications strategy

External and internal communications strategy

Effective communication is the cornerstone of any successful organization. I craft tailored communications strategies that convey your message clearly, consistently and compellingly across internal and external channels. This matters most in moments of change, whether it's a merger, a reorganization, a new strategy or AI reshaping how work gets done. People need clarity, context and trust, and I help leaders communicate change in ways that bring people along rather than leave them anxious or confused.

Writing and editing

In a world flooded with AI-generated content, distinctive, human-crafted writing is more valuable than ever. I help organizations cut through the sameness by sharpening voice, tightening arguments and making sure what you publish actually sounds like you. From crafting new content to polishing existing materials until they shine, I make every word count.

Positioning, sales and GTM support

I believe in the power of storytelling to transform brands, from compelling blog posts and eye-catching social media updates to thought leadership that shows off your expertise. Everything is crafted to captivate your audience and reach them at the right time, on the right channel. I'm especially good at translating complex ideas, whether technical capabilities, professional expertise or mission-driven work, into content that resonates with the people you need to reach.

Positioning, sales and GTM support

IGreat go-to-market starts with knowing who you're for and what makes you different. I help with positioning, messaging and defining your ideal clients, then create the materials that bring it to life: persuasive sales decks, brochures, case studies and launch kits that highlight your value, align to your strategy and speak directly to your customers' pain points.

Special projects and extra hands

Special projects and extra hands

Big idea brainstorming. Campaign development and support. Executive scripting. A temporary plug-in CCO. Senior help for agencies that need another experienced hand, under your name or mine … you get the picture.

Meet DGW's founder, Danielle Lundquist

I started as a journalist, so I'm still the person asking "but what does that actually mean?" From there, I spent a decade at New York PR agencies, working on a range of B2B and professional services accounts, led communications at storied design firm Smart Design, and then had nearly 12 years at consulting powerhouses Accenture and Thoughtworks.


That mix means I'm comfortable in a five-person studio or a global company with hundreds of thousands of people. I know how to find the story, get it past legal and through a matrix of stakeholders, and still have it sound like a human wrote it. And because I've done positioning, messaging and sales enablement too, the words I write are built to help you grow.


I live in New York. Outside of work, my life revolves around my two amazing children (the inspiration for the DGW name!) and my fur baby, Gizmo. I also advocate for neurodiversity, write children’s fiction and spend as much time outdoors as I can.

We'd love to hear from you!

Tell us a little about what's going on. A launch, a change, a story that isn't landing yet. We'll reply within one business day, and the first conversation is always free.
