With a degree in English and Philosophy, a diploma in Public Relations, and a certificate in Publishing, you could say I like to collect expensive pieces of paper. Whatever my reason, I use my love of words to finesse a brand’s unique brand story. Throughout my time writing for a variety of industries (financial, post-secondary, non-profit, hospitality, real estate, business services, publishing, etc.), I gained experience writing content for a number of mediums that include, but are not limited to, brochures, social media content, website, digital and print ads, press releases, media advisories, presentations, blogs, and so on. Essentially, if it involves letters, I'm your gal. (Ok, I realize math and science involve letters, too. Just go with it.) Fun facts for kicks: a voracious reader (seems fitting), competitive board game player (cracks knuckles), champion retail sale finder (waves to the cheering crowd), a knight of the random facts round table (not useful for a zombie apocalypse), television and movie addict (pass the popcorn), and advocate for the oxford comma (take note).
