Writer & Content Strategist

I'm a content strategist and communications professional based in Nanaimo, BC, honoured to live and work on the traditional and unceded territory of the Snuneymuxw First Nation.

My work sits at the intersection of storytelling, editorial craft, and strategic communication. Over more than a decade, I've helped organizations connect with their audiences through clear, plain-language content—whether that's a public-facing campaign, an internal communications program, a digital publishing platform, or an award-winning cookbook published by Penguin Random House.

I hold a BA in Art History from the University of Victoria and a Master's in Food Culture and Communications from the University of Gastronomic Sciences in Italy. That academic foundation—combined with hands-on experience producing content for organizations including Bon Appétit, The Globe and Mail, Destination BC, Row 7 Seeds, and the Government of Nunavut—has shaped an approach to communications that's curious, rigorous, and deeply audience-focused.

I'm particularly drawn to work that asks: how do we make this simpler? That might mean translating regulatory language into plain English, helping subject-matter experts connect with broader audiences, or building training and educational resources that give people the confidence to do their best work.

Most recently, I've owned and operated Heritage Cookbook, a custom publishing platform; this experience has deepened my expertise in content governance, user education, and operational communications. I'm now transitioning that leadership to a dedicated team and looking forward to bringing that breadth of experience to a new organization.
