I started out
just like you.

I had something I knew people wanted, but I didn’t know how to get it out in the world. 

I was a broke kid out of college with a dream of being a great writer and inspiring people with my words. Everyone told me newspapers were done, that no one was getting paid to write. And then, social media blew up.

I started learning about freelancing. And I got a few social media management jobs. I was excited and optimistic. So, when my first full-time job offer came along... 

Umm, yea. But it wasn’t all champagne toasts and going viral overnight.

I turned it down...

But then, I dedicated myself to mastering SEO.

That first year, I struggled to make even $15,000. I was making less than minimum wage and wasting a lot of time on the wrong things. No one was reading my content, let alone raising their hands to sign up for my services. I was sleeping on couches and eating a lot of pasta, doing work in exchange for services with other entrepreneurs so I could keep a portfolio going.

I read books, I took online courses, I started my own blog so I could test out my theories and I pulled all-nighters watching YouTube tutorials. And finally, I decided to get paid to learn. So, I got a job.

That first job was ghostwriting for CMOs (Chief Marketing Officers) of brands like Hyperloop One, Princess Cruises and Pepsi. I started getting people’s attention. And, shortly after, I went on to work in some of San Diego’s top agencies - like Neil Patel Digital and Siege Media.

I ticked 33 countries
off my bucket list...

I've launched a travel blog, worked with tourism boards, started my own content agency and taught myself all the parts of running an online business - like marketing, advertising, photography, networking,  and yes, even bookkeeping.

And I did all this with no marketing degree (I studied fashion!). I didn't even have an email list or - ironically - a website advertising my services. 

You see, I work with multi-million dollar companies, helping them increase their site traffic and product sales through keyword research and the SEO content I write for their websites.

I came a long way for a small town girl
from the Midwest.
