I'm a storyteller, marketing/communications professional and social media strategist who creates unique content with an authentic voice for a variety of channels. No matter the platform, from newsletters and press releases to web copy and Facebook posts, I develop messaging that engages readers and enhances branding.

     Using research, thoughtfulness, writing skills and flexibility - plus a dash of whimsy - I have the ability to paint a picture in someone's mind, to conjure magic with words. This is not a gift I take for granted, and I'm thankful there are careers that allow these little miracles to shine on behalf of others. Doing something I love and getting paid for it . . . well, that's basically a dream come true!

     To that end, I approach each day with optimism and wonder, every situation with eagerness and responsibility, all people with empathy and respect, and any task with dedication and enthusiasm. I love prying out the human interest story tucked away inside each seemingly mundane subject, and conveying complex topics on a level everyone can understand is a talent I honed during almost 9 years in the electric utility industry.

      I've felt compelled to write since childhood - was even published in my county's history book at age 8 - and it was inevitable that putting pen to paper (or fingertips to keyboard!) would feature prominently in my future. I graduated from the University of Georgia with a journalism degree and now have more than 11 years of communications experience under my belt.

     I'd love the opportunity to help you effectively connect with your various audiences, whomever they may be: customers, clients, members, consumers, shareholders, patients and everyone in between. To make someone's life easier and his or her business better is to have purpose, something I believe makes us whole.

     Another part of feeling fulfilled is success, and what we project to the world - our persona, our image, our HEART - is a vital component of that formula. One's narrative should be handled responsibly to maximize effectiveness and boost public perception. Wielded with precision, planning and panache, an impactful campaign can turn doubters into believers and cynics into ambassadors.

     Please make yourself at home here and browse through my resume, skills and work samples as long as you like. As you peruse my material, also consider what I can do for you, specifically.                Everyone has a fascinating tale to tell, and I can't wait to share yours with the                                world. I know there aren't enough hours in the day, so I won't waste any more of your time . . .        Let's get started!

      Warmest regards,

      Amy
