Then I turn that pulse into positioning, campaigns, and copy that actually moves people.
Category expansion for Mando — smarter messaging in a crowded, fear-driven space.
Conversation design for Alexa’s LLM transition — building systems for personality at scale.
Go-to-market for Sheets & Giggles — a category expansion that stayed true to the brand.
The decision-making layer beneath brand tone — built to scale without drift.
Personality-forward campaign — each blanket got its own dating profile.
I’m a creative strategist and writer focused on voice, storytelling, and making things sound human.
Most of my work lives inside brands, shaping how they speak across campaigns, product launches, and increasingly, AI-driven experiences. I care about clarity, intent, and trust. If something sounds like marketing, it’s probably not done yet.
I’ve spent most of my career in-house, working closely with product, design, and leadership teams to turn strategy into language that actually holds up in the real world.
I like systems. I like good jokes. I like when the right words make something feel obvious.
Every project is different. But the approach is always the same: listen first, find the real angle, write with conviction, and refine until it’s inevitable.
Every project begins with deep listening — understanding your audience, your context, and what you actually need from language. Not what you think you need.
The most interesting writing always comes from an unexpected angle. I spend time finding the one true thing that makes your message worth saying, then say it differently than expected.
I write multiple directions, test them against the brief, and come back with options that each make a clear case. No filler. No hedging.
The best work comes from honest dialogue. I welcome feedback and iterate until the language feels inevitable — like it couldn’t have been written any other way.
One-offs, loose work, and things that wouldn’t fit in a case study — emails, social posts, and the occasional bit of writing that’s just fun. This is what the day-to-day sounds like.
