I am a professional writer, editor, and creative content producer based in SoCal with Midwestern roots. I am passionate about sharing stories and ideas through writing and content curation. I can frequently be found seeking out convivial atmospheres and ebullient creatives. My work has been published on many websites and digital platforms.

After graduating from the University of Iowa in 2008 with an English degree proudly clutched in hand, I forayed into the business world, starting as a technical writing intern. While the 9-to-5 hours were filled with learning about SaaS software, B2B trends, and product innovation, the after-hours were filled with starting a fashion blog (the good old WordPress days), playing roller derby, and freelancing in fashion writing.

In 2013, upon realizing that there were some adventures too large to ignore and to spend time traveling and raising a new addition to the family, I went full-time freelance. My solo career has spanned well over a decade and included helping numerous startups, established organizations, and public figures with content initiatives, in addition to diving into media assignments with national and regional publications, such as Milk, HEYMAMA, Lenny Letter, DSM Magazine, Iowa Architect Magazine, and Living Details. Other projects have included work with global influencers like Wacoal, KADE, Stylebuy, Nouvel Heritage, FORM Couture, Belle en Argent, Hudson George, Renaissance Marriott, Copy Gurus (London agency), Angi/Homeadvisor, and Americanflat.

These days, I work on UX writing and content strategy with the Teaching & Learning and Product Development teams at Stride, Inc., and spend my free time on some near-and-dear personal writing endeavors, including a novel and a small collection of poetry.
