Professional/Personal Overview
  I'm an experienced marketing professional with spot-on judgment and a keen sense of what's next. In addition to creating targeted brand strategy and high-end customer service solutions for companies big and small, I've written editorials, ad copy, marketing proposals, press releases and blogs for countless food, fashion and media entities. I specialize in stylized, smart copy with an adaptable, distinctive voice. From eCommerce product copy to menu development to project proposals, my forte is communicating the message with clarity, wit and grace to create experiences that make customers feel connected.

My interests comprise the things that make our lives more fun, interesting and exciting like food, fashion, travel and the arts and my work reflects this joie de vivre.
