I have worked on the communications staff for the Iowa Senate Democrats. I am able to create advertising campaigns with a social media twist. I am also a published author and journalist.

It’s a given that we now live in a social media age… it’s embedded in everything we do, and it is my job to ensure the success of a company through great writing and social media.
