About
I am a nomadic wordsmith with a penchant for creating compelling web content and using my background in Psychology to connect with audiences and drive results. I specialize in creating tailored written copy and focused design to engage your audience, build your brand, and take your business to the next level. I am experienced in newsprint, design, and have a (borderline unhealthy) obsession with optimizing systems all while keeping hold of a good dose of wanderlust.
