ABOUT
​I first wanted to become a storyteller when I was seven years old. I skipped right over pilot, firefighter, doctor and landed at novelist. Since then, I came to understand that books were just one way to tell stories and my dream has evolved. Now, I am a communications professional with education and experiences in organizational communication, journalism, content production and social media marketing and management. I've learned how to identify my audience and craft content for their engagement and I'm eager for further opportunities to utilize those skills.
