From 2021-2022, I served as Digital Copywriter at SpaDerma, a small network of medical spas in Chicago. I was brought on board to help find a new and friendly voice for the brand.

I've had the extraordinary pleasure of contributing words on a contract basis to brands across industries: from real estate, to beauty and wellness, to nonprofits and traditional print media.

CLASSIC HOMES REALTY

For Classic Homes Realty in Danville, I led a 10 Year Anniversary campaign blitz including new radio spots, organizing local press coverage, and a refreshed social media style guide to better serve their clients online.

🏆 This campaign led to Classic Homes winning Best Agency in Vermillion County! 🏆

For musician Azealia Banks and her beauty and wellness brand CheapyXO, I created a product and at-home treatment guide for her line of Sleep Aid subscription boxes.
