Marketing. Internal processes. Brand voice. Creative writing. It’s all part of the blueprint of a business you’re trying to build. And the success of each part comes down to the engineering of words for the clarity of your message and your processes. As a "Content Architect" (a title I invented and rather like), I: 1. Fuse words into marketing funnels that create value, voice and trust at every stage. 2. Employ words in internal documents that lead whole teams to a common goal. 3. Connect words that give each brand a booming voice true to its vision. 4. Weave words into content of all kinds, from articles to specialty dictionaries. I've worked in marketing for 15 years now (oh my), which is how I got the knack for operations on the side. After all, marketing needs processes to work, so I enjoy putting my Director of Operations hat on to solve specific problems for clients. I take those same puzzle-solving skills to the brands I build, because at the end of the day, building a brand requires following clear brand guidelines with repeatable, frictionless processes. I also put words together to create content. I adore all kinds of content, from engaging worksheets that complement ebooks to whole websites and ghost-written autobiographies. That's what I mean when I say I wield words. I wield words from a bedrock of analysis to plan and build internal and external content, plus the systems to support it. If you have words you think need to get out, whoever your audience, whatever your message, please say hello! • Worked for 250+ brands • Recruited full-time by three of them • Worked for clients in 50+ industries • Worked independently since 2016 • And loved every minute of it
