Sophie Sharp
@sophiesharp
Creative communications leader specializing in narrative-driven brand strategy.
What I'm looking for
I am a creative problem solver who uses narrative skill, brand strategy and leadership to align complex ideas and diverse teams and produce clear direction and engaging experiences. I have led marketing and communications departments and served on senior leadership teams to translate organizational priorities into practical performance.
Across 20 years of diversified writing experience, I deliver marketing and brand copy, fiction and non-fiction prose, screenwriting and narrative design for games, and have grown small-business email sales from zero to over $90k annually while helping drive 4X year-over-year group sales growth.
I build data-informed brand strategies and digital customer journeys, design learning materials and mentorship programs, and handle crisis communications. I combine technical familiarity (analytics, CMS, creative tools, and narrative engines) with a collaborative, fun approach to create lasting impact.
