Press & Comms Drafting Agent
Drafts press releases, statements and internal announcements.
Produces a press release or internal note in house voice with boilerplate and forward-looking safe-harbor language in place. Drafts and stages only; every external statement clears the legal/disclosure judge as a check and the accountable comms officer approves it before it ships.
