WARNING: Past performance is not indicative of future results. I cannot guarantee media coverage of your business, organization, or cause. With that said, I’ve arranged media coverage of Taylor Swift’s casket (google it for more info); a restaurant’s $615,000 lawsuit against New York City (also easily found on google); and a barber who moonlights as a salami maker (yep, also on google). Since 2020, I’ve arranged over 200 earned media placements in The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, The Boston Globe (including two front page stories), the New York Post, CNBC, The Wall Street Journal, INSIDER, CNN, MSNBC, New York Magazine, Slate, A/V Club, NBC Nightly News, Fast Company, and dozens of other top-tier publications and outlets. DM me to have a 15 minute conversation about getting PR for your business - or better yet book a 30 minute consultation!

Versatile wordsmith with exceptional editorial precision since 2019. My writing portfolio demonstrates meticulous attention to detail across diverse subjects, earning publication in CNN Underscored, Cosmopolitan, InStyle, StyleCaster, Apartment Therapy, and other prestigious outlets where rigorous standards demand impeccable grammar and compelling narratives. My editorial versatility extends to brand partnerships such as Boohoo, Dolce Vita, Abercrombie, Dunkin', Amazon, and Harper Wilde, where I've taken complex brand guidelines to complete engaging narratives to drive measurable engagement. My education combines creative and analytical disciplines with a Master's in Business and Entrepreneurship from Northumbria University and a Bachelor's in Advertising and Marketing Communications from the Fashion Institute of Technology. These degrees enable me to create content with both creative vision and strategic purpose.
