There is no greater privilege than when someone shares their story—with you.

As far back as I can recall, words fascinated me.

People and their stories, fascinated me.

I loved reading biographies and was that dorky kid in the car pointing out the clever words on the billboard to my friends, who didn’t get why I was laughing.

My discovery of journalism and achieving a byline on the front page (my ultimate goal) was just the beginning of finding my purpose.

After working at three, major-market newspapers in the Phoenix- and Tucson-area, it didn’t take long for me to realize telling people’s stories was what I loved and was meant to do.

Gratefully, that is a key ingredient in every brand’s success, and I quickly discovered how this passion met my purpose as I entered the world of copywriting.

I’m a storyteller. I’m a writer. I’m a brand advocate. 

Sharing someone’s success after using a product, or capturing a company’s achievements opened up a world I never knew existed.

And I was hooked.

Who knew sharing community stories, taking complicated subjects and boiling them down into bite-sized, understandable messages could translate so well to sell a product or connect someone to a brand?

Since then, I’ve had the honor of telling hundreds of personal and professional stories as an in-house marketing and communications director at three, multi-million dollar companies, even leading the charge on writing efforts for big brands such as Disney, DreamWorks, Warner Bros. and more to support independent business owners.

On a personal note…

Yes, work is a big part of my story, but there are a few others you may enjoy, too.

I’m a blessed mother. I’m a loved wife.

I’m a garage-gym enthusiast. I’m an outdoor adventurer.

I’m a world-traveler with a bad (or good?) case of wanderlust.

I deeply appreciate local cuisine and the art of cooking.

And I love people.

We can learn so much from people’s personal stories – it’s what connects us to our humanity, our alikeness, and ultimately, our deepest loves.

I believe everyone has a story, and the world deserves to hear it.

And I’m grateful for each person, entrepreneur and brand who entrusts it to me.
