Recent Copywriting Work
With a need for new category names and product descriptions for a suite of florals and gifts, I worked with FAM to create a fresh tone of voice and playful energy across the site.

As the self-described ‘Net-a-Porter’ of interior design, I helped write up engaging and unique company bios for an extensive list of cadabbra’s clients, as found in their directory.
