As Marketing Communications Specialist, I have written stories for over 1,000 new & existing products—stories that have been used both internally and in customer-facing communications. I have edited and designed major print advertising campaigns that have gone out to millions of customers. I have also written the copy for 600+ Instagram posts. Additionally, I have created the label copy for retail products.I launched @traderjoes Instagram in 2017 and have been one of the main contributors toward our mostly-organic growth up to 2.5 million followers. As the Instagram post copywriter, I have been an integral part of moderating the unique Trader Joe's voice for this digital platform. I have also been part of the photography team, contributing featured photos to the @traderjoes feed from time to time.Additionally, I have produced several video commercials and advertising shorts using live action and a variety of stop-motion techniques. For several of these projects, I co-wrote, produced and recorded original music.In this role, I also design graphics for web and print, including cartoons and illustrations that have been used in national ad campaigns.[Media samples available upon request.]

Clayfiredcurator.org [no longer live] existed as an inspirational and instructional blog for worship curators (liturgical artists). We created this blog to generate excitement about an in-development web-based creative tool called Clayfire. In addition to generating original content for the daily blog, I was also responsible for securing prominent guest bloggers in the worship curation niche. I also scheduled and executed an editorial calendar for the blog and for corresponding Facebook and Twitter accounts.For Clayfire (the web-tool) I was commissioned—along with several others—to create artistic content that would eventually be made available as parts of collections to subscribers. I produced short live-action videos and composed and recorded the original soundtracks. I wrote prayers. I designed multi-sensory experiences for worshipers.
