Thanks so much for popping into my little cubbie on the web! Here’s a peek behind the curtain:

I am a writer and online marketer living a life in full color—I’m enchanted by colorful language, colorful design, and colorful characters.

I currently work freelance providing editing, copywriting, branding, email marketing, social media marketing, and web design services to clients in a variety of industries. I’m always open to chatting about new opportunities, so if you’re interested in collaborating with me, drop me an email so we can set up a consulting call.

For samples of my work, I invite you to check out my Portfolio page.

I’ve been doing my thing from home for over 10 years now and first started this line of work while living in the Caribbean (and no, I did not hustle on the beach mostly because if tourists spot you working in paradise, they shame you). After Hurricane Irma brutally demolished the island I was living on in 2017, I flew north to settle in Miami Beach and am still loving this trendy tropical locale as my home base.

I am fastidious (in the most fun way possible), efficient at managing my workload, and a delight to work with (or so I’ve been told). Prior to working online, I had a career in hotel sales for Marriott and Ritz-Carlton, so hospitality and wow-ing customers’ argyle socks off are also my jam.

I published my first children’s book, When You’re a Baby Who Lives on a Rock, in 2016, and am currently seeking a publisher for my second children’s book about responsible pet ownership. I am also in the midst of writing a book of essays and several humorous adult trade books.
