About
As a copywriter, publicist, and marketing strategist, I have curated and monitored communication in traditional and digital spaces, for brands in entertainment, nonprofit, corporate, and consulting fields. I have experience diving deep into research to best develop and nurture individualized brands and elevate client communication through storytelling content and relevant deliverable distribution and placement. I thrive in fast-paced and creative environments, where organization and time management yield effective collaborative and independent results. Through my client work, I create and utilize inclusive, accessible (brand-aligned) language for compelling distribution. I graduated from Auburn University with a Bachelor of Arts in Public Relations in 2020, and am currently based in New York, NY.
