Social-First Storytelling & Creative Strategy
After a decade navigating editorial, agency, and in-house content, I’ve realized I’m at my best when I’m helping brands tell their story online.
Today, I operate as a dedicated social media contractor, offering the high-capacity support of an in-house hire with the specialized strategy of a consultant.

Content Impact

These campaigns did more than just look good; they gained significant organic reach and were amplified province-wide by Super, Natural British Columbia.
