A passionate storyteller 
with a sense of humor

 Hi there! I’m a freelance copywriter ready to bring your brand’s stories to life. Blog posts, case studies, website copy, ghostwriting, video scripts, and ebooks are my jam. 

Prior to freelancing, I was VP of Marketing and first marketing hire at an early stage startup that was named one of Fast Company's Most Innovative Companies. Before that, I was a content marketer at Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

Though Silicon Valley is a roller coaster, I find my real adrenaline rush doing standup comedy. I’ve performed at SF Sketchfest, 208 Comedy Fest, Oak City Comedy Festival, and (most often) seedy dive bars.

I spoke about comedy and marketing at SXSW and co-host Baby Sheriffs, a very silly comedy game show. I also do virtual and corporate comedy gigs, and will happily tell jokes at your next all-hands meeting.
