Sherry Moeller gives me all kinds of inspiration for moving on after a life in mainstream media. My fellow Washington Spaces alum, who later worked for Capital File, leveraged her contacts to form a new PR firm called MoKi Media with partner Dannia Hakki (Moeller + Hakki = MoKi). And if last night was any indication, she and Dannia will be creating lots of buzz in their new endeavor.

Sherry represents the design end of the firm, while Dannia covers health and spa-oriented clients. I just love the work of Sherry’s first three clients: Designers Christopher Boutlier and Mary Douglas Drysdale, and Architect Jim Rill.
And because pictures say more than words, here’s some examples of their work, which will NOT be hard for Sherry to promote.

Mary Douglas Drysdale
Mary Douglas Drysdale indulges my love of green in this project. How I would love to be this client!
This picure really captures Jim Rill's studied, elegant architecture.
I plan to do longer posts in the future on each one of these talented designers, which is why I’m only giving you a taste right now. But hats off to Sherry in her new career in public relations, to be able to sign such notables right off the bat. No doubt, lots more will follow.
