A LITTLE ABOUT ME

But only a little.

As a writer and producer, I'm always sharpening my sense of how stories connect with people on behalf of brands and organizations. I've repositioned organizations, branded new ventures, and created ad campaigns, print collateral, and fundraising programs.

 

I've produced videos for small nonprofits and large multinational corporations. I've written in the voices of everyone from mayors and CEOs to some of humanity's best friends. And I've won awards (a few Tellys, stands for television; and Asters, as in health care) for my work.

 

I've gotten especially interested in working across mediums—print, digital, audio, events...even maps and tote bags—to bring stories to life in new and more engaging ways.

I'll let my work speak for itself. But if you're looking for a resume, you can find one below.
