Hello, it's me.
What I Do
I love sharing a story. Whether that takes the shape of a punchy email subject line, a brief copy blurb, or a deep-dive into an organic farm that handcrafts artisanal soap with goat’s milk, it’s all worth telling well.
I am endlessly friendly and have the class superlative to prove it. (Go Hornets!) I am equally at ease working independently (better control of the playlist) as I am in an office (potentially better snacks). I work with Google Drive, JIRA, WordPress, Office, InDesign, Trello, monday.com, Confluence, and I can even handle a little HTML, too.
