Me: I freelance anywhere from the Senior Copywriter to Creative Director level. It’s not about titles for me. It’s all about the work. I love coming up with big ideas and rolling up my sleeves to write copy across different channels. My specialties include 360 integrated campaigns, social first, scripts for TV commercials / online videos, and digital. View my LinkedIn
