Ever since writing my first poem in 3rd grade, I was obsessed with how to say more with less. My career has been a winding road, and I have come full circle. I started out in PR pitching journalists. But I wanted more creativity, so I became a journalist for a bit. Then I wanted more.
After so many jobs in different facets of marketing and communication, I realized what rung true over the years—I like to write copy and content.

Listener by Trade

Now as a licensed massage therapist, I am listening with my hands as I scan my clients for problem areas. I enjoy tending to client needs while fostering in them an innate trust in my process. I have learned through massage and crisis work that the art of persuasion requires a gentle, intuitive approach.
