Hello, prospective client. Thanks for stopping by; now let’s get to know each other.

I love writing. Anything, really. Whether I’m working on a high-stakes creative concept or just drafting emails, I’m fueled by the search for just the right combination of words that is going to connect with the person on the other end of the piece. Is this deck more “dynamic” or “fluid?” Is this product a “game-changer,” a “paradigm shift,” or just “the new hotness?” I know this probably seems like a nightmare to some people, but the words we choose are the heart and soul of effective communication and it’s one of my favorite things to do.

And so far, the AIs aren’t very good at it.

I’m a big believer in texture and dynamics within language, and finding the right feeling is the most important decision I make when I’m starting a project. Meeting my target where they live and connecting with their needs is priority one, because people listen better when they feel heard first.

Outside of my writing work, I’m an improviser who does about 200 live shows a year and teaches a ton of improv classes. Improv has been an invaluable tool to my writing, and not just because it allows me to be quick on the draw with ideas. The foundational “Yes, And” rule is the perfect writing tool, because it teaches us to collaborate actively and without question: everything that has been said is true, and every idea has equal potential to be the best one, even if it’s not yours.

I bring the skills I’ve learned through a couple decades of on-the-spot theatre to every team I work with, making sure your needs and feedback are an integral part of the process. I’m ready to push boundaries and generate a lot of new thoughts, but I am never too precious about my ideas to make a change. The result is work that everyone can be happy with, because we made it together.

If this sounds like the type of stuff your brand needs right now, then I might just be your guy. My inbox is always open, so shoot me an email and let’s get started!
