Professional Experience
I approach each assignment from a storyteller's perspective. A versatile copywriter and award-winning reporter and columnist, I work with clients to effectively communicate their unique story while seamlessly integrating strategic messaging to advance the brand.
Prior to launching my own consulting business, I was the senior writer at Rubenstein Public Relations, where I drafted and edited written materials for high-profile clients in real estate, business, nonprofit, entertainment, consumer and health and wellness.
I also directed all writing on behalf of the agency, including Web site copy, pitch letters, marketing presentations and correspondence on behalf of the president; and developed media strategy and content for all new business proposals, helping to secure millions in retainer fees for the agency.
I am available to assist with all projects, both large and small, and produce quality work at competitive rates on tight deadlines.
