Hello, and welcome to my freelance portfolio!

I spent the first 15 years of my career in a broad range of marketing and communications roles, primarily in the higher education and nonprofit sectors. For the last eight years, I have had the incredible opportunity to provide freelance services for a variety of clients -- both local to my hometown of Cleveland, Ohio, and nationwide.

Through this work, I have discovered a passion for promoting an extensive array of messaging, including financial wellness, economic inclusion, community development, and small business strategies and best practices.

My best workdays are spent helping organizations streamline their communications, create compelling content, and achieve a polished web presence. Together, we connect their work to constituents, clients, customers, and community to further their messaging and mission and create meaningful relationships.

Feel free to scroll through my work below, which can be segmented by industry/subject.

Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me! I hope we have a chance to connect!
