Few things in this world make me happier than a well-placed semicolon or angrier than an unnecessary apostrophe. 

Writing has been my primary skill for as long as I can remember. In addition to my natural talent (#humblebrag), I have a Master of Arts in Writing and Publishing from DePaul University, a certificate in digital marketing from Cornell University, and experience writing internal and external communications for companies in a variety of industries including higher education, retail, and financial services.

I also built this website, so I’m clearly a multi-faceted individual.

THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU HIRE ME:

• I have never had a cup of coffee. Some people think this is a dealbreaker.

• I do, however, have an alarming addiction to McDonald’s Diet Coke.

• Why, yes. Yes, that is a Glamour Shots photo circa 1995. Thank you for asking.

• My GIF game is strong.

• In my pre-COVID office life, I kept a stash of candy at my desk at all times. This is part of my highly successful strategy to win friends and influence people.

• In my post-COVID WFH life, I still keep a stash of candy at all times. I’m not trying to bribe myself, I just have a severe sweet tooth.

• I talk about my dog more than is advisable by 9 out of 10 medical professionals.
