Let’s tell a story.

I knew when I was five years old I wanted to be a writer someday.

Sure, there were a few kinks to work out. I had lots of words to learn, and I did not hold my pencil correctly (and I still have the callouses to prove it). But as soon as I started mastering the shapes of letters, as soon as I began turning those letters into words and those words into sentences, I couldn’t get enough.

As my world expanded, I learned about many ways to tell stories I never could have imagined before. I gained experience in a multitude of mediums—print, web, design, photography, video, audio, you name it. As I diversified my skillset and moved from journalism to marketing to public relations, I knew my most foundational skill was clear, impactful writing.

Sure, I can talk the marketing talk. I know all about SEO, KPIs, et cetera. B2B content marketing is my bread and butter, but human-centered writing is my jam. Even when writing for businesses, I have experience breaking down the jargon and creating communications that break through to the right audiences. At the end of the day, we want to see content that feels human, and that’s the sweet spot where I want to work.

You’re looking for innovative content that speaks to the right audience. I’m looking for chances to tell compelling stories for individuals and brands.
