Rifeline fosters environments that allow our clients to move forward with their projects, regardless of how controversial or negative public perception surrounding the issue may be – and we do so with not only ours, but the client’s integrity intact. We are proud to have built a reputation of professionalism, fairness, and honesty in the communities with whom we work. We respect our clients, stakeholders, and project adversaries and work hard to earn their respect in return.

Lynda’s an expert at connecting with stakeholders, understanding
community concerns, and helping organizations convey information and engage the public in policy
discussions. She has a can-do
attitude, is adept at facilitating
collaboration among entities and individuals, and has the ability to keep clients on track when derailed by doubt, surprise or lack of experience. Most of all, she has a heart of gold and friendly manner that moves people to action.

—Mayor Kirk Watson, City of Austin
