Hello!
I'm glad you're here. There's a lot of info below about me if you'd like to do a deep dive. In short – I am a clinical scientist who primarily works in content and copywriting with fun brands and startups. Weird mix, right?
My scientific background makes me a great numbers gal and my clinical work means I am pretty darn good at taking the perspective of customers! I can handle a diverse range of topics with confidence and I'll get you whatever results you're looking for.
Come along, let's journey into my credentials...
•First let's look at the boring/makes me credible stuff:
I have a master’s in clinical psychology and a PhD in developmental psychology with over a decade of clinical and research experience. I was supervised by world-renowned scientists, am a recipient of several esteemed grants, and a Frederick Banting and Charles Best Doctoral scholar.
I have extensive experience in clinical research including neuropsychopharmacological research, depression research, and neuropsychometry. I also served for 8 years as an editorial manager to international journals in neuropsychopharmacology.
•Cool therapy skills add-ons:
I am trained in cognitive behavioral therapy, rational emotive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness. As a bonus, I am also a certified personal trainer and precision nutrition coach.
•The copywriting stuff:
Ad creative and copy expert who is especially skilled at short-form copy. I also write killer email campaigns, landing pages, and pretty much anything else you want! I especially love joining brands during the discovery period but also tend to have a great time with established brands.
