Copy Editor

Sarasota Rising

Working closely with the Executive Director, Jeffery Kin, and the Next-Mark marketing team, I edit marketing and communication copy for sentence structure, spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors to ensure clarity and consistency. Additionally, I proof all marketing content for accuracy and completeness.

A serial creative solopreneur, a breaker of molds, guided by four life beacons:

- Autonomy (personal freedom)
- Purpose (in meaningful work)
- Community (collaborative networking) 
- Peace (in mind + body) 

I endeavor to leave a legacy of generosity, kindness, and compassion. 

Beyond partnering with small business owners and nonprofit leaders to write and publish compelling (and error-free) content, I hope everyone I encounter gains a little joy and levity from connecting with me.

I also collaborate with and encourage other creative professionals to embrace bold and authentic storytelling in blogs and podcasts.

The Ethical Storyteller | Founder & Host of We Don't Talk About That | Director of Communications | Public Speaker | Advocate | Policy Enthusiast 🌸✊🏽

You've been through the ringer – the sleepless nights, the caffeine-fueled brainstorming sessions, and the endless loop of asking yourself, "What on earth am I doing?" 

Startup life is simultaneously exhilarating and hair-pulling.

You've had that unsettling feeling that your pitch is more likely to attract tumbleweeds than investors.

You've been to the "snazzy" networking events that are really a room full of people pretending they've got it all figured out.

You've had tech glitches, marketing mayhem, and pivoted so many times you feel like you're doing the cha-cha. 

You've heard the crickets chirping around the product you poured your (actual) sweat blood, and tears into.

You know your business has the potential to transform your customers' lives and make a real difference, but you're struggling to stand out. 

If you're ready to stir the pot and change lives....If you care about mission AND margin....I got you.

I'm a coffee-chugging, weight-lifting, Marvel-loving storyteller and content creator from Ohio. 

I've spent years doling out founder therapy and supporting small businesses in telling their story and maximizing their impact in an ethical way.

Why founders? I love how they go all-in on ideas that could save their communities, city, and the world. 

The startup ecosystem can be an intimidating space, but it doesn't have to be that way. Let's ruffle some feathers and change some lives. 

If you'd like to work together, grab your beverage of choice (coffee, energy drink, or maybe something a bit stronger – no judgment here), and let’s chat!
