Summary

I'm a brand and content marketing strategist with a background in SEO, branding, and storytelling. I started out writing romance copy for hotels, restaurants, and makeup. Then, I transitioned into UX copywriting for apps and long-form writing for some of the most recognizable SaaS brands in the market, including IBM, Salesforce GSIs, Microsoft, among others. Over the years, I worked closely with designers, developers, and writers to develop holistic content strategies that span a customer's lifecycle.
