Writing

Whether it’s visual design or written communication, the end goal is the same: getting your message across. It is rare to find someone who is talented in both of these areas - “left-brain” and “right-brain” - but most people would agree that I have achieved results in both worlds. I believe this crossover ability enables one to see the “big picture” and understand how different components work together to maximum effect.

My writing contributions have generally fallen into two areas: B2B and B2C.

Copywriting

My consumer-directed writing has been in the form of websites, blog posts, social media, and articles in traditional media. Here are some samples:

Web Copy

I wrote all copy on the Relocity website.

I’ve written copy for numerous other websites, but online material is continually updated, so there is nothing else online at the moment.

Magazine Articles

While at Schoos Design, I often “ghost wrote” interviews with Thomas Shoos, channeling what I knew to be his thoughts, but crafting them into a compelling narrative. Here are some examples:

Ellie Sojourn Interview

Modern Decor article - Written for a Chinese magazine, with translation

Modern Luxury Residences article

Note: i also shot all but 2 of the photographs shown in the above articles.
