Hi!
I’m a freelance copywriter in Los Angeles with over 10 years of experience. And I like to make cool things.
I’ve worked for agencies, in-house creative departments, and even a few startups. From TV spots to social posts, small budgets to gigantic ones, I’m here for it all.
Originally from Chicago (but, like, the suburbs), I dream about Michael Jordan and tavern-style pizza every night.
