I work within mostly educational spaces and am interested in technology too. Great content both resonates with people and introduces them to new perspectives and experiences. I draw on storytelling, psychology, and research/data to shape narratives. I prefer communication that focuses on serving people, makes complex ideas accessible, and sounds like a real person, with a real voice.
Past work experiences
Communications Manager @ The Morgan Library & Museum
Research Associate and Writing Teacher @ UCLA, Comparative Literature Department
Assistant @ Princeton University Press, Textbooks Department
Content Writer & UX Researcher @ Code for Princeton
Writing Tutor @ Rutgers University, Plangere Writing Center
Here are some things I can do:
- create press releases and kits
- pitch your projects to media outlets, focusing on potentially unexplored perspectives and capturing the spirit and stakes of the project
- help teams clarify their messaging and address diversity & inclusion in more meaningful ways
- help teams streamline their content creation process
- offer guidance and editing on job search materials: cover letters, resumes, and personal statements
