What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead content strategy and teams, drive SEO performance, and improve engagement through data-informed editorial decisions.

I am a seasoned copywriter with 12 years of experience in digital and print copywriting, SEO, and social media management. I've led content teams, developed and executed SEO strategies that produced measurable traffic growth, and consistently improved user engagement through strategic content updates and rigorous editorial standards.

My background includes managing editorial schedules, optimizing content for search engines, streamlining email and publication workflows, and producing analytical, audience-focused copy. I hold an M.A. in English and a B.A. in Journalism with a concentration in magazine writing, and I bring strong critical and logical analysis, organization, and project management to every role.
