Over the past five years, I’ve written and edited marketing content for nearly 100 brands, leading a cross-functional team to help businesses communicate clearly across websites, blogs, newsletters, and social media.

As my understanding of our platforms and processes deepened, I contributed to internal and client-facing resource documents and internal user guides. That’s where I discovered what motivates my work most: clear writing that helps people understand complex systems.

I’m now pursuing opportunities in UX, technical, or content writing, where I can bring a strong editorial foundation, brand fluency, and a user-centered mindset to digital products and documentation.

Produced and maintained client-facing user guides that enabled non-technical users to edit and publish pages in WordPress CMS, reducing support requests and revision cycles.
Partnered with designers and developers to create information architecture (IA), CMS page structures, microcopy, and UI text to improve user flow, accessibility, and conversion performance.
Led copy development for 10+ full website builds, writing, structuring, and implementing content in WordPress and Shopify CMS aligned with brand voice, UX best practices, and search engine optimization (SEO) strategy.
Built internal process documentation and reference guides to standardize workflows across a cross-functional marketing team and accelerate onboarding for new team members.
Directed content strategy for 30+ clients across industries, ensuring clarity, consistency, and accuracy across web, blog, email, and social platforms.
Produced multi-channel copy and content for websites, blogs, newsletters, social media posts, and graphic designs (Canva) across a variety of niches.
Led client meetings to gather information from Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) and translate business goals into user-centered content.
Interviewed, onboarded, and trained 5+ team members by documenting workflows and coaching on content systems, tools, and project management procedures.
Implemented web and blog content in CMS platforms, optimized for searchability, accessibility, and brand voice.

Roles held:

Digital Marketing Director (July 2023 - December 2025)
Content Coordinator (May 2022 - July 2023)
Student Intern/Brand Ambassador (May 2021 - May 2022)

Aided professors in class discussions relevant to writing and researching position papers on ethics in technology.
Tutored students in researching and writing argumentative papers in structured writing formats (MLA/IEEE), emphasizing adherence to style guidelines, and helping students translate technical concepts into structured, persuasive content.
Occasionally led workshops and discussions on developing argumentative writing and research workflows by leveraging the library’s digital resource database.
