Biography
Stories are a fundamental part of my life. Whether I’m communicating complex ideas to team members and clients, writing thought-provoking content, or delving into my weekly Dungeons & Dragons campaign, I live and breathe storytelling. I’m a creative content marketing and UX expert who thrives by employing user-focused storytelling to solve complex challenges. I use my decade of experience to tackle problems with a forward-thinking blend of data, empathy and intuition, resulting in solutions that empower people and brands to connect authentically. I’ve worked with more than 45 national and international B2B and B2C brands that span dozens of verticals. As a journalist, my byline is featured in more than a dozen publications, including The Guardian, mental_floss Magazine, Moz, New York Magazine, Slate Magazine, Pacific Standard, The World Economic Forum, A List Apart, and The Arizona Republic. I love working with nonprofit organizations, climate-focused companies, and other service-focused businesses.
