I've always been a storyteller. Growing up, I loved drawing picture books or writing stories with extensive character development. That passion for writing turned into an interest in journalism and led me to writing for a living. Whether I am working in marketing, crafting a newsletter, creating digital content for social media, or simply writing an article - the love of storytelling is persistent.
I graduated as a super super senior from the University of Washington with a BA in Journalism. The "super super" senior part might not be super super sexy, but it was because I was already working full time at KOMO News, a local news station in Seattle, from the time I was 20. An internship with Seattle Refined, a lifestyle website and television show, turned into a full-time Assistant Editor and Digital Producer role. There, I truly cultivated my journalistic, editorial, and social media skills.
From there, I went on to the news side and worked as a Social Media Manager for KOMO News. After the pandemic, I needed a massive change and decided to freelance write. I worked in many capacities, as on-air talent for different companies, social media management, writing lifestyle and hard news articles, and also managed a bar for fun.
For the last several years, I have worked in Marketing and Communications spaces, diving into all things content marketing and communications related. With nearly 10 years of experience and a diverse array of avenues, I believe I bring a unique voice and perspective to any project that I work on.
In my portfolio, you'll find a variety of content related to lifestyle, travel, food, adventure, beauty, and everything in between. From destination guides, travel tips, restaurant recommendations, activity ideas, to profiles of rad people and businesses in Seattle and beyond, my goal is to tell amazing stories in any way I can!
