Work experience
Smart Passive Income
Jan, 2019 —
Jun, 2022
(over 3 years)
I managed the blog at Smart Passive Income, writing and editing SEO-rich content for a worldwide audience of digital entrepreneurs. I also produced the SPI Podcast with Pat Flynn and AskPat 2.0, and created and cohosted Flops, an original podcast about outrageous failure and how people overcome it.
Buy Box Experts
Jun, 2017 —
Jan, 2020
(over 2 years)
I helped an agency with no content strategy, a sparse blog, and a basic understanding of its unique selling proposition (USP) find its voice and establish a regular publishing cadence of high-SEO value articles and in-depth industry analyses. I also wrote original copy for listings of several of Buy Box Experts' Amazon seller clients.
Winning Edits
Mar, 2017 —
Jan, 2019
(almost 2 years)
I was a lead writer and editor (including ghostwriting) for a digital agency that created content for brands that crave a close-knit and prosperous relationship with their customers. We edited books, produced top-notch web content, and even published an in-house magazine called Hyperlink, to which I was a key contributor.
The Storied Future
Feb, 2017 —
Present
I currently produce The Storied Future Podcast for this B2B marketing agency. The show features interviews with experts, innovators, and purpose driven leaders who have harnessed the power of narrative to create lasting change.
I've also worked as a writer and editor, creating copy and web content for clients such as Microsoft, GoDaddy, and SAP Concur.
Rocket Code
Aug, 2015 —
Mar, 2017
(over 1 year)
I helped develop the content strategy and build the blog and email marketing channels for a digital agency focused on website optimization and software solutions for ambitious ecommerce brands.
Self-employed
Sep, 2012 —
Present
As an independent writer and editor, I help ambitious authors and agencies turn their ideas into top-notch content.
Amazon Services (Amazon.com)
Sep, 2012 —
Jun, 2014
(over 1 year)
As a member of the third-party seller account management and marketing team at Amazon, I uncovered business development opportunities and created marketing materials aimed at helping third-party sellers grow their business on the platform. I created and edited content for email marketing materials, seller-facing videos, seller surveys, printed collateral, and other communications and initiatives.
