Experience

Summary

Went from doing traditional print advertising at an ad agency as their Senior Copywriter to creating content for a YouTube channel of 350,000 subscribers to now writing about the renewable energy sector. I'm passionate about people and their stories.

Love working with management that is clear, direct, and straightforward. Things change but open communication is key to achieving goals within tight deadlines. Love teams that are diverse in skill sets but not boxed into specific roles.
