About Jordan Appel
Digital Communications & Marketing Strategist | Mission-Driven Storyteller
I am a purpose-driven digital communications strategist dedicated to driving organizational efficiency and mission impact through high-level storytelling and meticulous research.
With a background spanning the philanthropy, nonprofit and healthcare sectors, I specialize in building lasting community connections through "social-first" content creation, cross-team collaboration and data-informed project management. My career is defined by a unique balance: the creative agility to capture an audience's attention and the operational discipline to ensure digital systems run with 100% integrity.
Current Work: The Strategic Consultant
As a Marketing/Research Consultant at CommunicationsMatch™, I lead growth and outreach efforts for a startup platform connecting global PR agencies, freelancers and consultants with strategic business leads. My work focuses on enhancing email marketing messaging and data-driven engagement strategies that encourage the platform’s users to respond.

Emotional & Social Intelligence: I am highly skilled at navigating high-stakes stakeholder environments—from scientists to global agency leaders—and reading between the lines of facial expressions and tone to build genuine and mutual relationships.
The Agility Mindset: I have the courage to collaborate at any level of an organization and the "quick-witted" creativity to solve complex problems with unique digital solutions.
Brand Ambassadorship: I am motivated to serve as a face for the organizations I represent, combining professional public speaking skills with a "brand-first" mentality.

Beyond the Desk
When I am not developing digital strategies, I am an active member of Wayne Toastmasters and a dedicated advocate for mental health and environmental protection.
I am a firm believer in the power of mindfulness and the importance of using professional skills to advocate for a more equitable world.
I also write, record and perform poetry under Jordan Scott Poetry and play piano/keyboard, where I enjoy the process of editing, scheduling and publishing videos that showcase engaging and creative digital content.
