General

A feature article published online and in-print by The Writer Magazine in April 2014.
Prepared for a leading consumer fitness brand, I crafted numerous blog posts that brought home fitness equipment to life through customer weight loss and wellness journeys. The collaborative process included an in-depth interview with the customer and supplemental interviews with the product team.
As a ghostwriter, I penned a thought leadership for a previous c-suite executive in the consumer product space, that was published by Entrepreneur in July 2016. The collaborative process included sourcing sessions with the client, in-depth research, and numerous supplemental interviews with key employees.
When growing fitness brand Core Home Fitness brought its new Glute Drive machine to the U.S. market in 2021, I prepared strategic messaging and drafted an announcement press release that generated more than 148 million impressions.
