Delicious Fish, Satisfying Growth.
This post for a DC seafood dive (name redacted for confidentiality) shows the impact of engaging social media content. Shared over 275 times, this attention caused the page to boom from 8k to 8.5k likes in just one week; meanwhile, strong community management facilitated 50 new visitors that week.

Tapping Into Trends
"Think raising your practice exam score by 11 points is impossible? #StrangerThings have happened." For one LSAT test prep company, tapping into the social media success of a Netflix hit connected them to the 20-somethings in their student base while winning attention from prospective students.

I recommend social media blogs like Simply Measured and Social Media Maven. I enjoy personal development books like The Little Book of Talent are great, and I love digging into books about writing. Currently, The Hero with a Thousand Faces.
Side projects
As a writer, I've been recognized at a couple of national screenwriting competitions. I've also assistant coached the national champion collegiate speech and debate team at UT Austin -- Hook 'Em!

I thrive on open teams. Being able to speak openly among clients and managers is not only beneficial to everyone, but invaluable to putting forth the best work possible. I gravitate towards positivity, and I hope to engender that whenever possible.
