Hello! And welcome.

Thanks for stopping by. If you’re looking for a messaging strategist or writer who can deliver smart, effective, award-winning work, you’ve come to the right place.

I’ve spent my career crafting content that connects—whether that’s rallying public support, raising funds, or amplifying voices that deserve to be heard.

I got my start writing and managing media outreach for a U.S. Senator in Washington, D.C. After grad school, I worked as a journalist in St. Paul, Detroit, and Chicago—leading editorial teams in increasingly senior roles, ultimately overseeing content and editing at a national public affairs magazine.

Since then, I’ve used that foundation to help nonprofits, foundations, and mission-aligned businesses shape their message and expand their reach. I specialize in:

  • Developing research-based outreach strategies that resonate across geographies and cultures

  • Ghostwriting speeches, talking points, and op-eds for public leaders and executives

  • Translating complex topics into accessible, engaging copy through interviews and storytelling

  • Writing landing pages, scripts, and “magnet words” for web, video, and social media

  • Creating donor engagement materials and producing events that build connection

  • Using analytics and SEO to identify content opportunities and measure results

  • Collaborating across teams to deliver high-quality work—on time and on budget

A little about me:
When I’m not working, you’ll probably find me at the dog park with Betty the Basenji. Providing a good home to secondhand hounds is one of my life’s joys—and the inspiration behind my children’s book, a rhyming whimsy that features such lyrical pairings as “regret” and “toilet,” and “work” and “berserk.”
