Experienced Copywriter, Editor & Writer. Let me craft compelling copy and engaging content that captivates your audience, sets you apart from the competition, and helps you achieve your goals. I'm an art historian and writer with experience doing artistic and historical research, working in museums and with living artists. I have both a MFA and MA, and love doing everything from academic work to creative writing. My favorite writing projects are articles, blog posts, and social media content, but I have extensive experience writing and editing resumes, CV's, marketing materials, and cover letters. My particular expertise is in art, history, fashion, culture, and not-for-profits, but I have worked with clients in the healthcare, law, literature, and education spaces.

With over a decade of experience in the banking, legal, and business consulting sectors, I specialize in presentation graphics, technical writing, and content strategy. I’ve worked with several Fortune 500 law firms and consulting firms, creating high-impact PowerPoint presentations, drafting and proofing legal documents, developing RFPs and grant proposals, and documenting workflow processes with precision and clarity. My skills span across MS Office, Adobe Creative Suite, and a variety of project management and writing tools.

As a Columbia-educated English Lit major, I’ve brought creative insight and sharp messaging to everything from technical manuals and business plans to ebooks and investor pitch decks.

I’ve successfully completed 60+ projects on Upwork and enjoy working with clients who value versatility, creativity, and thoughtful execution. I’d love to learn more about your needs and explore how I can help bring your ideas to life.

Most clients bring me in at one of two critical points: before the story gets built, or after it isn’t working. Sometimes we’re starting from scratch and deciding what the company should own, what the messaging needs to lead with, and why the right people should care. Other times, the website has already been rewritten twice. The pitch deck has been growing. Or everyone on the team is explaining the business differently. The words may be technically correct, but nothing's really sticking or moving the business forward. As a senior strategist and writer with 15+ years of experience, I lead the work from the first positioning decisions all the way through the website, deck, launch, campaign, sales story, and communications that puts them to use. The strategy stays connected to the execution, so the process is simpler, faster, and nothing gets lost in translation. I’ve spent years helping more than 100 startups, established B2B and consumer companies, Fortune 500 organizations, nonprofits, and public figures explain what they do, why it matters, and why someone should choose them.

Send me your current website, deck, or brief and tell me what feels hardest to explain. I’ll take a look at where the brand may be getting stuck.
