Professional/Personal Overview
As you’ll see from my experience, I’m as comfortable writing consumer facing marketing copy, as I am internal communications for a Fortune 500 company. I’ve interviewed doctors while they were transplanting a kidney, questioned business leaders in the boardroom, and chatted with young recording artists on stage. My work has put me in touch with numerous performers, CEOs, automotive executives, medical professionals and everyday people. What I’ve learned is to tell a compelling and informative story, regardless of the subject. My beats have included diversity, automotive, health and work life issues, corporate giving, and many more. Most recently, I’m writing marketing copy for a large automotive client.
