About

Hello, I’m Sumiko Martinez. I’m a humanities nerd with a serious thing for data-driven advocacy and an undying love for all things strategy, research, learning, and communication. I’m the founder of Rhetorica Consulting.

I earned a BA in English from Westminster College and a Master’s degree and PhD in Communication from the University of Utah.

I have 17+ years’ professional, board, and volunteer experience working with nonprofits, government, and higher education and have brought my expertise for making a social impact into all of my work.

I’m passionate about helping nonprofits and the people who do good, do better.
