Hi!
I’m an LA-based writer and creative who got my start on the agency side writing shelf talkers, radio ads, and emails for a small grocery brand, eventually working on integrated campaigns for Target, Walmart, and Google.
Over the last 4 years I’ve been lucky enough to hone my craft at Google Brand Studio with a stellar team, creating campaigns, mentoring up-and-coming creatives, and leading projects while picking up some hardware along the way.
I also help nonprofits create their narrative vision, and work with small brands to define and expand their voice. Every brand has a human story to tell and I love collaborating to find out what that story is.
Reach out if you ever want to chat about work, punctuation, or the tragically-cut-short series, Freaks and Geeks.
