Good writing is good thinking.

I bring both to my communications work for creative agencies and clients.

As a freelance writer, I come up with the big campaign idea and the zingy tagline, then roll it out with a brand manifesto, video scripts and website storytelling that grab interest and inspire action.

I’m not afraid of science and policy, and I draw on my journalism background to research and deliver spot-on ghostwriting for executives and thought leaders, original blog posts for companies and causes, and in-depth articles that bring clarity to complexity.

I've spent a lot of time in newsrooms—hard, hilarious work that gave me speed on deadline, versatility, respect for truth, healthy skepticism and a sense of humor.
