Growing up as a quiet, imaginative kid in the Midwest, I spent much of my time immersed in the vivid world inside my head. Ideas surged through my mind as I sat at my desk, rapidly translating them onto paper.
My fiery passion for words became my hot air balloon, lifting me up and taking me to new places and opportunities, first in journalism and public relations, then video and later marketing and branding.
My diverse 8+ year career as a professional copywriter and storyteller has collectively contributed to my mastery of language, love for other people’s stories and impeccable eye for narrative structure and story leads.
I believe your projects can change the world, and my words and ideas can help you get there.
My approach is a mix of strategic, grounded and innovative.
My journalism background has taught me how to ask questions and listen intently.
Writing and telling other people's stories is my passion. I care deeply.
My writing is emotion-infused and holds space for audience's needs and stories.
No matter how complex the topic, I'm able to understand and translate it.
My lived experiences have made me uniquely qualified to write about special topics and audiences.
