YOUR VISION
IS OUR MISSION

A small, dedicated team that cares about the work you do.
EFM is a communications agency that helps mission-driven teams like yours clearly explain what you do, reach the people you serve, and keep your communications moving without adding more stress to your already-busy staff.
Our structure keeps us nimble, responsive, and cost-conscious, while giving you thoughtful communication support you can trust, with heart.

Steve Fillmore

Steve’s the one who takes our big ideas and makes sure they land. He leads layout for The Local, crafts sidebars and callouts from scratch, and keeps projects moving from first draft to final delivery. He’s also the bridge between our team, our clients, and our print partners — keeping everyone in the loop and every box accounted for.

From mapping out a publication to double-checking the print run, Steve’s work is thoughtful, thorough, and dependable. He keeps everything running smoothly even when the cat’s in a mood.

Carolyn Sullivan

Writer, editor, designer, photographer, idea machine — if it needs doing, Carolyn’s probably already halfway through it. She touches nearly every part of East Falls Media’s work, from research to final results, always with a focus on clarity, community, and connection.

Whether she’s interviewing a borough official, laying out a flyer, or snapping a photo that ends up on the front page, she brings a rare mix of curiosity, care, and creative instinct. She may not love being in front of the camera, but we’ve got her fingerprints all over the frame.

Dave Grace

Dave is the one who knows a guy.

With a career that spans coasts and decades, he is fluent in just about every kind of communication: strategy, print, digital, video, PR, broadcast, and the real-world problem-solving that happens between all of them.

He is also the reason we somehow keep finding the right connection at the right time.

A natural collaborator and an even better guitar player, Dave brings curiosity, rhythm, and practical know-how to the work. His superpower is helping people, ideas, and projects work better together.

Charity Frye

Charity helps lead East Falls Media’s Google Ad Grants support, working with nonprofits to turn free search advertising into clearer pathways for donors, volunteers, visitors, and community members. An advocate for people power and collective care, Charity brings a thoughtful, creative approach to mission-driven communication. Her interests in documentary photography, video, nature, and human connection shape the way she sees stories and the people behind them.
