About

Writer of words. Teller of stories. Creator of singing cacti.

Technically, copywriting is my second career.

Well, sort of. Despite the fact that I majored in media studies and screenwriting, I somehow felt the need to go to law school nine years ago. No surprises here: I promptly left after two weeks.

Since then, I found my way back to the creative — but equally strategic — side and have collaborated with dozens of clients across a variety of industries, both B2B and B2C. Whether I'm concepting for a campaign, leading a workshop, or writing for a website, I charge myself daily to find the story behind every business and the voice behind every brand.

Even when I'm not writing for work, I write for fun. In fact, I just published my first children's book last year about my favorite city. When I'm not writing for work or for fun, I make stop-motion short films (check out these singing cacti) and hang out with my number one pal, Oliver (pictured).
