About Us

I believe that the art of communication is what truly makes a difference in our multicultural world. That is what makes The Artful Communicator both an organization and inspiration. Being in the communications field for over thirty years as an actor and coach, as well as my expertise in conflict management and resolution, allows me to guide individuals and organizations to find their ‘artful communicator’ that is waiting to be discovered.

An actor focuses on the craft of communication. We move beyond the words to the language we speak with our eyes, our body, our tone… to align what we want to say with the action of saying it. Equally as important, we learn to judge communication objectively, listening for the truth behind the words and acting to resolve potential conflict quickly and effectively without allowing personal bias to get in the way. 

I came to realize that these skills are just as valuable to individuals and companies. Being able to communicate with clarity and confidence in all settings is key to personal and professional achievement....especially in today's uncertain times!

The Artful Communicator works with organizations wanting to develop effective communication, change, and conflict management skills within targeted employee groups. Through one-on-one training and tailored workshops, we specialize in helping companies manage communication challenges such as:

• Significant organizational change, such as mergers, acquisitions and downsizing.
• Team building and leadership development for younger employees.
• Bringing together diverse cultures into cohesive teams where everyone has a voice.
• Nonprofit and startup environments, as organizations seek to develop a social identity.

With an understanding of the impact that effective communication offers, Crystina has worked with clients over the years to successfully produce cross-cultural media and communication projects for a variety of cultures, languages and audiences. 

She founded HAWKLI Productions in 1999 to develop projects that could both entertain and inspire, and within two years had completed bilingual media projects for regional and national organizations covering a range of topics from domestic abuse to cultural awareness and tolerance. In 2001, HAWKLI was signed by the Miccosukee Tribe of Indians of Florida to produce a television series that would highlight the cultural traditions and natural resources of both Florida and Native America. In the following years she produced over 100 shows seen both nationally and around the world.

In 2010 she launched The Artful Communicator as her focus shifted to working with small groups of professionals on communication, presentation and conflict management skills. With a PhD in Conflict Analysis and Resolution, she has built a network of colleagues and trainers around the world who share her belief in the power of creative communication to promote both individual and social change. Now, she works with individuals and organizations worldwide to develop more effective communication and conflict transformation methods.

“No matter the language, communication is the key to unlocking hidden potential and resolving impossible conflict. My expertise allows me to guide individuals and organizations in finding their artful communicator. By developing greater communication and presentation skills, they can also become inspiring, effective leaders.”
