Hi there!

Owner/Copywriter

Thanks for checking out my site.

You’ve probably come to this page to learn more about me… so here goes! Even though I love words and use them for a living, I really dislike writing about myself. I’ll admit that I sat for an embarrassingly long time trying to figure out what to say on this page.

Since this is clearly a professional endeavor, I first thought I’d mention recent projects I’ve worked on (answer: dozens of projects spanning B2B, NGOs, academia, contemporary art, sustainability, and technology/web dev). But you’re also supposed to add a touch of “personality” to your About Me page… so I could instead say that I have two spirited cats and an adventurous husband, with whom I’ve been traveling the world for the last 3+ years.

In the end, though, I guess what I’d most like to say about myself is this:

It’s not me that matters anyway. It’s you.

I love using my background, knowledge, and love for language to make your content clearer, more impactful, and more powerful. I approach every project with a fresh set of eyes, bringing insights from my past experiences without letting them interfere with our search for the one-of-a-kind content you need.

So what I lack in writing-about-myself skills… I’ll more than make up for in my writing for you. Send me a message, and let’s get to it!

P.S. Because no writer’s bio can be complete without a shout-out to those who’ve inspired me the most:

  • Marlon James, The Book of Night Women
  • Charles Dickens, Little Dorrit
  • Viet Thanh Nguyen, The Sympathizer
  • Min Jin Lee, Pachinko
  • Edward P. Jones, The Known World
  • Leo Tolstoy, Anna Karenina
  • Salman Rushdie, Midnight’s Children
