Marketing and Branding
In addition to my journalism work, I’m also an experienced brand strategist and communications professional. I love conducting research and creating messaging that aligns with strategic brand goals. Below are examples of my work and expertise.
The Women’s Comfort Shoe Brand
For this project, I facilitated brand discovery sessions and conducted target audience, market and competitor research. I then created a brand guide that includes a lifecycle marketing strategy, target audience analysis and voice and tone suggestions.
The Environmental Nonprofit
For this sustainability-focused coworking and event space, I executed a rebrand and helped promote the space’s new brand vision. I focused on attracting a new target audience and creating consistent and brand-aligned communications strategies.
