• Copywriter / Content Producer

  • Oct 2014 - Sep 2017

  As a member of the University of Washington's central marketing and communications team, I helped define and build the UW's brand through storytelling. My primary role at the UW was writing and producing immersive storytelling experiences, collaborating with a video producer, graphic designer, web designer and photographer to create well-rounded visual content packages that helped instill pride in the University and encourage philanthropy. On many of these projects, I not only wrote the main long-form piece, but wrote a series of accompanying collateral that lived across various UW channels. Additionally, I helped direct and produce the short-form documentaries that were often created as part of the package, which included everything from organizing production-day logistics and budgets to conducting on-camera interviews to editing the final film narrative. In addition to immersive storytelling, my role included feature writing for the UW's homepage and alumni magazine, Columns; short-form writing for annual reports to contributors; and producing event collateral including invitations, emails, signage, programs, and more for key campus-wide fêtes.
