ABOUT ME

I call hearts and minds to action my conversational writing, regardless of the reader’s knowledge of the topic. I spent 13 years in retail and restaurant management. The entire time, I wrote training guides, press releases, owned in-store marketing, and tracked analytics. My passion for gaming never went away, and I needed a change. I left one form of entertainment behind and set my sights on esports. The goal is to be the voice of a brand or connect with a community through content and words. Let's work together to make that happen! RELEVANT EXPERIENCE
