Freelance Writer and Content Marketer

About Me

I want to solve problem for your customer. Whether you’re a B2B or B2C company, your marketing communications should be human to human. Content that informs and inspires your target customer—and sounds like it’s coming from a real person—builds that connection.

I create marketing strategies and write blog posts, email campaigns, case studies, white papers, and press releases, and I make sure your website makes sense.

With an advanced degree in creative writing and a decade working in publishing and marketing, I’ve seen pretty much everything the written word can do. I take the best from all three fields and help clients with long sales cycles move customers to a yes.

I’ve worked with organizations in education, healthcare, supply chain, manufacturing, and non-profits. But, what I look for in a client is a passion for their work. In me you’ll find bold ideas, elegant solutions, comic relief from the day-to-day, and above all good writing.
