About me

I earned my B.A. in English from Spelman ​College and my M.P.S. in Public Relations and ​Corporate Communications from Georgetown ​University. As an English major, I honed my ​ability to think logically, read critically, and ​communicate effectively; my collegiate ​concentrations were 20th Century African ​American Literature and Journalism.


I believe words are a powerful tool when used ​correctly. Throughout my studies, I have been ​able to develop expertise in researching, ​synthesizing information, and strategically ​communicating. My graduate work in strategic ​communications has allowed me to diversify ​my portfolio using several forms of written ​communication. I have over 15 years of ​experience in content writing and corporate ​communications.



I am an avid reader, which led to my love of ​editing. I particularly help clients with ​editing their children's book manuscripts ​for publication. Additionally, I work with ​several indie book specific PR companies to ​review and edit unfinished manuscripts.


Skills: psychographic research, journalism, ​internal communications, social media ​management, content writing, editing ​(certified), copyediting, newsletter content ​writing, infographics, research, SEO ​(certified), social media marketing ​(certified), digital marketing, integrated ​marketing communications, graphic ​design, elementary education
