She began in network television newsrooms, producing national broadcast journalism for networks including NBC, MSNBC, CBS, and Oxygen Networks, where she learned to make complex ideas land with millions of people under deadline pressure. She then moved to a Madison Avenue publicity firm, shaping campaigns for Fortune 100 brands including Microsoft, before leading internal and external communication for international professional services firms and publicly traded corporations.

Shakira gives audiences repeatable frameworks they can use the next morning, drawn from her work as an award-winning leadership communication strategist and CPE-approved corporate trainer. Her newest work, on human-AI collaboration, helps teams get more from AI tools through clear communication while protecting the human skills that make leaders worth following.
