Tell Your Story
Your written content should speak to your customers. Your images should help tell your story. Most importantly, your message should be clear and compelling.
We live in a fast paced, complex, often chaotic world where the average attention span is just 8 seconds. If you’re not telling a story that grabs your audience’s attention, paints a clear picture and adds value to their lives, they won’t be your audience for long.
About Me
I am an experienced project manager and support specialist, skilled in brand messaging, social media and email marketing, WordPress website design, copywriting and content development, event management and volunteer training and management.
My diverse experience working with nonprofits, small businesses and volunteer organizations has given me the opportunity to develop a variety of skills. I look forward to putting these skills to work for you.
“Working together we managed several different projects, including large-scale projects with substantial logistical requirements. She made these difficult projects look easy, never missing a beat and always on top of everything. She brings a positive attitude to everything she does and is always reliable.”
