Copywriter, Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Distributor

August 2016–April 2025

As AMMEX’s first-ever in-house copywriter, I fostered greater collaboration between marketing and sales and helped create a universal content calendar attuned to the nuances of the complex B2B and B2C PPE markets.

Initiated, researched, and wrote quarterly updates on the disposable glove industry, establishing AMMEX as a thought leader and go-to source for insights.

Regularly interviewed customers, turning their feedback into actionable intel. Helped to revamp our email marketing with improved targeting and a more personal tone and design.

During the height of the pandemic, with both product and information in short supply, I resuscitated a moribund occasional blog and transformed it into a channel for weekly communication with customers.
