Copywriter: Google, Kajabi | Ghostwriter helping founders attract clients on LinkedIn | 15 years in marketing & advertising | Follow for insights on entrepreneurship, writing, & productivity

I have spent my career helping brands find the story that actually matters. 

For ten plus years I have led creative and narrative work for teams at Google, Kajabi, TD Ameritrade, NBC, and others. I have built messaging systems, shaped brand voice, guided multi channel campaigns, directed video work, and helped cross functional teams speak with one clear voice. I love the craft of writing. I love the strategy behind that craft even more.

What I do best is bring order to chaos. Give me scattered notes, competing priorities, three different visions, and a tight deadline and I will turn it into something simple, clear, and powerful. I build frameworks that help teams stay aligned. I guide writers and designers toward stronger creative choices. I lead with curiosity, collaboration, and intention.

I believe every brand has a story worth telling. I believe clarity makes everything stronger. And I believe creative leadership is about elevating the work so the team can shine.

If you are building something that needs stronger narrative direction or a creative partner who brings both heart and structure, I would love to connect.

My life changed the day I got the call...

Until September 2022, I thought I’d made it.

I got into Bioengineering at one of Portugal’s top universities.

All the years of late nights and hard work finally paid off.

But one day, the phone rang.

It was our landlord.

His voice was cold and final: “I want you out as soon as our contract ends.”

With no money and the new sky-high rents, I was left in a pit of anxiety.

With little savings and skyrocketing rents, my mother and I were soon going to be homeless.

My grades, once a source of pride, began to plummet.

Anxiety and despair took hold.

I was on the verge of depression.

Faced with no other choice, I took the biggest bet of my life...

I was going to go all in on learning how to make money online.

I didn't want the Lambo or fancy Rolex.

I just wanted to make money so my mother and I could survive.

So, with 0 idea what I was doing, I decided to hire a business mentor I had been following on social media for a little over a year.

I was going to build my personal brand and learn how to get paid to write online as a ghostwriter.

I knew the next few months would determine whether:

1) My mother and I would have a roof over our head 

Or...

2) My mother and I would be begging in the streets just to get by.

So, I went 100% in.

• I quit college
• I drained my savings
• I even took out a loan so I could afford the mentorship

Starting from 0, I faced many challenges...

• Months of no income
• Feeling like I didn’t belong
• Wondering if I’d even make it

But through many failures (and lessons), I slowly got better each day.

I went from 0 followers to growing by over 30 followers a day.

I went from being a nobody to talking with high-value entrepreneurs daily.

But most importantly, I started making enough money to pay for rent and put food on our table.
