First and foremost, I'm a Godzilla fanatic. I'm also an experienced journalist and copywriter. I've reported for multiple news outlets, including the Columbia Missourian daily newspaper, Vox Magazine and the Trace. I currently work as a marketing copywriter, creating digital marketing copy for brand messaging playbooks, websites, emails, paid ads, video scripts and so much more.
