Hi, I’m a writing ninja for the good guys.
When you have kids, you realize the saying is true: we don’t inherit the earth from our ancestors we borrow it from our children.
I build content strategies and write marketing content for brands and businesses that believe in growing their sales by doing right by people and the planet.
I focus on storytelling that brings people on a journey toward a solution.
The only thing I love more than watching Disney movies with my kids is writing for boss businesses that are doing all the good.
