Work

Short-form, long-form, mid-form, bite-sized… whatever the format, I’ve accomplished the feat. I’ve spent over 10 years strategizing and creating content for nearly every marketing channel under the sun—and maybe even a few in the shade.

My portfolio contains a myriad of media, including (but not limited to):

• Websites
• Landing pages
• Blogs
• Social (organic and paid)
• Email (campaigns and automated)
• PPC / search ads
• Ebooks, whitepapers, and guides
• Video (scripting and storyboarding)
• Podcasts
• Infographics
• Online training courses
• Product and program naming

• Print
• Public relations / press releases
• Success stories / case studies
• Direct mail
• Sales materials
• Out-of-home
• Radio
• TV
• In-store signage
• Packaging / labels
• Skywriting (Just kidding, but I totally would.)

Oh… I’m also a food news writer, children’s book author, essayist, and poet. What can I say? I adore what I do.

Feel free to peruse various samples of my writing below. If you’d like to see my work from a particular channel, I have plenty to share. Just ask.
