Curriculum Vitae

In school, I studied Creative Writing and learned the value of authentic storytelling and careful editing. I apply these skills to my professional work, where I translate clients’ missions and values into website copy that attracts potential customers, strengthens search visibility, and communicates information. 

 

I am also committed to giving back. I actively volunteer in my city and support local conservation efforts to help build a healthier, more connected community.
