What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role on a supportive, collaborative team that encourages curiosity and personal development. I thrive in an environment open to conversation and questions, where tasks can vary from day to day. I am excited by a role that gives me room to stretch myself comfortably and helps me learn what I don’t know I don’t know.

For over a decade, I’ve been passionate about helping people and telling their stories through internal and external communications that inform, inspire and connect. I’ve proven my ability to craft meaningful content, manage editorial planning, collaborate with others and support high-impact events.

I have developed internal newsletters and campaigns, corporate alliances, crisis communications, and external news and blog posts. I have experience managing content calendars, an intranet for 3000+ global employees, and coordinating amongst cross-functional teams.
