Writer & Content Strategist
Experience writing across every channel and making it all feel like it came from one place.
I focus on creating content that's as effective as it is engaging.
I started in financial services, where the stakes are high and the compliance team reads everything. At Chrysler Capital, a division of Santander Consumer USA, I helped build a brand from the ground up. That meant creating the voice first, then carrying it through everything the company put into the world. Campaigns, landing pages, email programs, paid ads, video scripts, compliance-reviewed customer communications — if it had words, I either wrote it or reviewed it.
Working closely with an exceptional design team for years shaped how I think about content. Good writing gives designers something to build on. When both sides trust each other, the work gets pushed further than either could take it alone. That kind of collaboration taught me that content is never just the words. It is the whole experience.
That thinking carried into everything that came after. At the Town of Meredith, I was not just writing web content. I was diagnosing what a site was failing to do for its audience and fixing it, using traffic data to drive decisions and plain language to make services actually usable. At Big Green Egg, I am building documentation standards from scratch so that every writer on the team produces work that sounds like the brand.
Lately I have been incorporating AI tools including ChatGPT, Copilot, and Claude into my daily workflow. Not to replace the writing, but to move faster, explore more ideas, and catch things I might miss. I also build the governance frameworks that help teams use these tools without losing accuracy, voice, or quality control.
Consumers were getting pre-approved for Chrysler Capital financing but not moving forward to purchase. A real drop-off between intent and action. I focused on where messaging could reduce that friction, build confidence, and support the decision to continue.
I started by mapping the real objections. Better rate elsewhere. Payment too high. Did not know Chrysler Capital well enough to trust them. That last one was the opening. It was not a rate problem. It was a relationship problem. And relationship problems need relationship writing.
I pitched a four-email campaign with a dating app tone. Personal, light, a little playful. Internal feedback loved the voice but trimmed the series to three emails. The campaign launched in September 2021.
Chrysler Capital / Santander Consumer USA
Created the brand voice for Chrysler Capital and carried it through everything. Campaigns, landing pages, email, paid ads, blog content, video scripts, and compliance-reviewed customer communications. Developed messaging frameworks and creative briefs. Directed content teams. Supported executive communications through ghostwriting.
Santander Consumer USA and Chrysler Capital
Sole content person for large-scale promotional sweepstakes running twice annually across both brands. Created all consumer-facing content across email, web landing pages, and social media. Kept two distinct brand voices consistent while meeting legal, compliance, and deadline requirements.
Santander Consumer USA and Chrysler Capital
Consumer-facing articles and educational web content covering personal finance, auto lending, and credit. Written to be genuinely useful to real people navigating complicated topics. SEO-optimized to support web traffic growth and improve engagement.
Santander Consumer USA
Created all title-related content on the Santander Consumer USA customer site. Vehicle titles involve state-by-state variation, lender rules, and legal terminology that can easily overwhelm a customer at an already stressful moment. The goal was to take a genuinely complicated process and make it feel navigable, clear, and confidence-building without oversimplifying anything important.
Town of Meredith, New Hampshire
Led full content strategy for a municipal website migration including information architecture, CMS implementation, and Google Analytics integration. Created a Visitors page based on traffic patterns and audience research. Standardized public-facing content for clarity, accessibility, and usability.
Big Green Egg
Developing a Technical Writer's Guide (v4, in internal review) establishing voice, tone, formatting, safety messaging, AI usage policy, and trademark standards for all technical and instructional content. Additional work in production includes video scripts and Instructions for Use copy.
Santander Consumer USA
Partnered with UX research to completely redesign direct mail campaigns based on customer behavior data. The collaboration produced messaging that connected with real motivations, not assumed ones.
Brand Voice and Identity
I have built brand voices from scratch and carried them across every channel. The goal is always the same. Make it feel like it came from one person, even when a whole team is writing it.
Campaign Concepting and Copy
I think in campaigns, not just copy. From the strategic insight to the subject line to the CTA, I build content that has a point of view and moves people to act.
UX and Conversational Writing
Not just how it reads, but how it flows. I look at where content loses people and how to fix it across web, mobile, and chatbot platforms.
Technical and Instructional Writing
Complex systems, regulated workflows, product documentation. I make them clear for the people who actually have to use them, not just the people who built them.
Analytics and Performance
I use data to make better decisions. Traffic patterns, campaign performance, audience behavior. Content strategy without measurement is just guessing.
AI-Augmented Workflows
I use ChatGPT, Copilot, and Claude as a regular part of my process and build governance frameworks to make sure AI-assisted content meets the same standard as everything else.
