What I'm looking for

I'm looking to create clear, accessible, mission-driven digital content while collaborating across teams, using storytelling and analytics to strengthen audience engagement and organizational impact.

I am a marketing and communications professional collaborating across international and grassroots spaces. I know connection can spark movements and I find energy in sharing stories. I aim to bring my passion for content creation, creative strategy, and community building to amplify voices and drive change.

I also founded Morgan’s Message, an international mental health advocacy nonprofit that grew to 80K+ social followers and activated more than 6,000 ambassadors across 2,000+ campuses worldwide. My work spans content marketing, bilingual storytelling, donor engagement, research, fact-checking, and mission-driven communications.
