Resume
Creative Content Creator Helping Companies Get Ahead Of The Digital Curve
My love for writing started at a young age. I loved the idea of crafting characters and telling their story. Writing, and reading, was my escape from the real world.I got attached to fictional characters. I went on countless adventures in my mind. So it was only natural for me to continue that journey throughout college and graduate school.
After graduating, I wanted to find a way to utilize my writing skills while still making a living. Copywriting was a natural choice in career path. But as the marketing industry evolved, it became more and more apparent that content marketing was my calling. The characters became companies and their stories transformed into their marketing objectives.
