Here's how I can help you with your branding and marketing writing needs.

From eat-your-vegetables to savory, sweet and tangy: Using humor and insight, compelling storytelling or the just-right mix of fact, I can help you create digestible messages - even if your content is uniquely complex or highly technical.

Audiences will cheer: From consumers to business partners to employees, I can craft targeted messages and strategic, dynamic content that will keep your audiences reading.

The long and the short of it: Whether you need a perfectly succinct subject line, a manual reduced to a compelling short article or want a program explained in finite detail, I can deliver.

Squeaky-clean copy: Do you notice typos in your restaurant menus or in the books you read for pleasure? I do. You can count on me to deliver extremely well edited content, whether it's a draft of an article or the final version of a complete newsletter.

Since launching my business a.k.a writer, I have written and edited newsletter content for global and national retailers, consulting companies, marketing firms and leaders in consumer-focused green initiatives. Recent work includes:

1. Crafting copy for B2B customer brochures for Seattle's favorite software company
2. Creating the overall tone and content for the inaugural celebrity edition of The Green Millionaire's eMagazine
3. Writing copy for REI's internal newsletter "Snaplink"
4. Developing the brand voice and writing all copy for Alchemia Consulting

Prior to a.k.a writer, I spent seven years in-house with Starbucks Coffee Company. Highlights of my work there includes:

Producing content for press releases, fact sheets, business-to-business marketing, micro sites, social media and internal communications.

Overseeing script development, filming and production of dozens of Entertainment videos, and composed scripts for Starbucks-specific projects with household name celebrities including Will Smith, Alanis Morissette, Paul McCartney, Herbie Hancock and Project Runway's Mychael Knight.

Editing company-wide newsletters for a global audience of employees in various functional roles, including store operations.
