I believe words are one of our strongest assets as humans. When conveyed just right, they can produce larger-than-life messages. I tailor words to communicate the best message for products, brands, hot topics, and much more. My writing and editing experience spans more than 15 years and continues to grow. I love the Oxford comma, unique product descriptions, and exploring the ins and outs of a company's customer journey.

Late winter/early spring is one the best times for transplanting trees so if you're dreaming of placing a happy little tree on your own picture-perfect property, now's the time. • None Ground
