About Me
AT WORK… I’m a creative copy editor, writer & proofreader with experience in the luxury fashion e-commerce industry. I’m visually oriented, but am also highly organized and can translate performance data into compelling creative content. Areas of copy expertise & experience: marketing, editorial, promotional, UX, SEO, organic and paid social, product editorial, print, out of home.
OUTSIDE OF WORK… I love rummaging through thrift stores, practicing Spanish and Italian, traveling near and far, hitting my yearly Goodreads reading goal (chick-lit, rom-coms & thrillers), and trying out any Half Baked Harvest recipe.
