About Dave Reno
Hi, I’m Dave.
I work at the intersection of communications and public service, focusing on clarity, trust, and practical problem-solving.
My work centers on helping public-sector teams explain complex topics, engage communities, and communicate in ways that are clear, accessible, and grounded in real-world constraints. My approach to public communication is nationally recognized as a model by the American Public Works Association.
My work often includes:
Public-sector communication and community engagement
Plain-language writing for complex or technical topics
Content strategy and public-facing materials
Strategic communication planning and evaluation
Photography and visual storytelling
This site highlights selected portfolio work, along with writing about communication, community engagement, and the systems behind public-sector work.
