Here is a sampling of the work of which I’m most proud, from infusing feeling into fitness copywriting to helping my local park attract new volunteers and interviewing a Michelin-starred chef.

Behavioral health company Spring Health partnered with Herman-Scheer to create content on Instagram and LinkedIn. I participated in the development and execution of a comprehensive strategy to position them as a leader in the mental health space, with a strong focus on education and thought leadership. During our time with Spring Health, we’ve helped grow their LinkedIn audience beyond 100k followers.

After working with Collins to rebrand, fitness veteran BowFlex tapped Herman-Scheer to execute a rollout on social. I assisted with developing a comprehensive strategy to bring their refreshed brand to life. I currently lead verbal on social, translating business goals into engaging, exciting content. I also wrote copy for the BowFlex Inc. corporate site.

At Ludlow Kingsley, we rebranded B2B merchandising company Nadel. I assisted with creating their new website and brand messaging, including content strategy, copywriting and developing a scalable structure for their portfolio. Moreover, I wrote marketing materials and social content to communicate their new brand to the world.

I joined the Friends of Elysian Park (formerly known as the Citizens Committee to Save Elysian Park) in early 2020, right before the COVID pandemic began. During the pandemic, I refreshed the organization’s website and revived email and social communications. Ever since it has been safer to gather in public, I have spearheaded several events in the park, including trash cleanups, new member orientations and an outdoor photo exhibit in early 2023 which hundreds of people visited. I’m honored to contribute my communications expertise to the cause; since I joined, we have recruited several new board members and dozens of volunteers.
My writing has been published on blogs and websites, magazines and newspapers. As you can probably tell from my clips, I don’t have a particular niche — I enjoy learning about new topics through writing and research all the time. Browse some of my favorite freelancing work as of late ⤵️
