    Creativity is one thing artificial intelligence cannot replicate. That's why you need someone with the experience and the skills necessary to craft your content and make your vision a reality. If you have something important to share with the world - a story, a personal experience, a proposal - it's crucial to have all the right words so that others understand what you are trying to say. That's where I come in. I help you find the best way to communicate your product, service, or lessons to your target audience. From SEO to attention-grabbing headlines, your content deserves white glove service, thorough research, and a fine-toothed comb review from start to finish. My content comes from the heart, so I only work with material that inspires me. If I want to work on your project, then it is something I truly believe in. I am deeply passionate about diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I), arts and literature, and the correct use of punctuation and grammar. I love to talk about the English language in my spare time. Linking these interests to your products or experience helps me optimize marketing content, blogs, books, e-books, and more. If I truly believe in your purpose, I make content: Engaging Factually Accurate Typo-Free 100 Percent Original (No AI Material) Communication acts as a powerful distribution tool. Harness it with the right words and structure. Together, we can accomplish your goals!

    Since graduating from the University of Mount Union with a degree in public relations, I have further developed my skills in creating, writing, and promoting content on an array of subjects. I started in the industry working full-time at PR Newswire as a senior editor of press releases. Through this position, I could successfully zero in on my attention to detail and my editorial, grammatical, and SEO skills. In addition, I wrote for the online music publication Beyond The Stage Magazine. I served as a senior contributing writer for over three years and had the opportunity to write on many topics - anything from artist feature pieces to album reviews. I then became the magazine's Managing Editor, managing written content for the bi-monthly issues. I've also served as an SEO Content Specialist at the digital marketing agency Silverback Strategies, where I edited blogs to be more SEO-friendly. I utilized keywords and editorial SEO skills to enhance our client's work. Currently, I am a Senior Editor at Amazon. I rework tech-focused content to make it easy to understand, helpful, and encouraging to the sellers on the platform. I thoroughly enjoy writing, and I am always looking to expand my knowledge by learning and writing about any new topics that may come my way. Feel free to take a look through my portfolio and see just what I am capable of. If you have questions about a specific project, feel free to shoot me a message! Thank you for your consideration.

    "Oh, horrible vulturism of earth! From which not the mightiest whale is free." Herman Melville, Moby Dick Ever since I was a kid, I seemed destined to go into a communications career. I studied Washington Post reporters like other high schoolers studied baseball statistics, and this passion has stayed with me throughout my long, distinguished career in the U.S. Military. My comprehensive understanding of national media guides my communications strategies-from devising plans for U.S. cabinet officials and prominent military leaders that engage international audiences to managing relationships with top news organizations across print and broadcast media. I have even been recognized for my excellence in this field by senior military leaders. While traditional long-form journalism is essential to my career story, the arts have equally galvanized me to create positive, impactful messaging. I am a poet, fiction writer, and actor and these
