I write words on screens. I’m a copywriter, web writer, editor, blogger, content strategist and general social butterfly. Want to make your words better? We can talk about that.
I also really like to eat, knit, get free samples of anything, watch depressing documentaries on Netflix and fake my way through a wine list. If you want to talk about any of those topics, that’s cool too.

From concepting to content strategy to production to editing, I make sure that every online experience I'm involved in creating makes life easier for the end user.
