About me

For the past 12 years, I've consulted on many web and editorial projects. Clients have included Liberty Mutual Insurance, Harvard Divinity School, Fidelity Investments, Cognex Corporation, MIT, and more. My work has included: content strategy and development; writing and editing; information architecture and wireframing, and website project management.

I have particular strengths in conducting research and interpreting data to develop specific recommendations to help my clients improve their communications. I can also write and edit for a range of audiences. Some subject areas I've worked in include: recruitment, career advice, employee communications and training, technology, financial services, and higher ed.

Before I became an independent consultant, I worked at companies like Monster.com and Fidelity Investments, where I focused on content strategy and development, web project management, and corporate marketing and communications. Some highlights of my career have included:

  • Creating the award-winning Monster Blog

  • Proposing and managing the redesign of Fidelity Investments’ recruitment websites

  • Designing and teaching a class on content strategy at Fitchburg State University

  • Project-managing the redesign of the Harvard Divinity School website

  • Publishing four ebooks, including my first novel.

I hold a BA in English and American Studies from Wellesley College and a Masters in history from Purdue University. I am a long-time member of the Editorial Freelancers Association. You can read more about my background and experience on my LinkedIn profile.
