I’m a creative writer and storytelling strategist with 15+ years of experience guiding brand and content strategy across tech-enabled startups, management consulting, and entertainment. I recently started a freelance consulting practice to bring my skills to clients directly. In addition, I offer script consulting services to creative writers through my company, Plot & Page. I translate abstract, technical, or sensitive ideas into clear, human-centered narratives that connect with audiences in real time, whether in live events, brand activations, digital platforms, creative scripts, or executive communications. As a hands-on partner, I write, shape, strategize, and iterate alongside designers, producers, and stakeholders to craft narrative-driven experiences. I’ve built and led in-house creative teams, rebuilt websites and blogs, and produced content across web, product, marketing, social, and advocacy — driving growth while maintaining trust and clarity. I have a proven track record of combining creativity with strategy to meet goals on time and on budget for a variety of organizations and sectors -- from increasing enrollments for a healthcare startup to shaping TV scripts for Netflix and Paramount to developing marketing materials for small businesses. I also bring strong management consulting experience from my time with Booz & Co, and PwC, which gives me deep expertise in leadership, organizational change, and communication strategy.
