I love writing because it allows me to be a lifelong learner, mentally traveling from one subject to the next.

Working with artists, scientists, physicians, and engineers, I’ve been able to hone my ability to craft any topic, regardless of its complexity, into a compelling narrative.

As a storyteller, I have the power to help others share their passions. So, whether I am promoting a vegan cafeteria or explaining neuroscience research, I’m honored my clients trust me with their work.

Currently, I put my talents to use as the Director of Communications and Marketing at the University of South Carolina School of Medicine. See my resume and writing samples to learn more about my professional journey.
