About Me

Hey there, thanks for dropping by 👋

​

If you’re looking for a partner on your content or communication projects – or someone to listen enthusiastically to your cat stories – you're in the right place.

​

I’m Amanda, a Midwest girl at heart kicking it in the Rocky Mountains.

 

Quite simply, I’m obsessed with all forms of content and communication, and consider the AP Stylebook my personal Bible. I light up when tackling typos, crafting a creative strategy, interviewing bold leaders and change-makers, making data-driven decisions, and creating organizational efficiencies. I geek out over personas, journey maps and brand guides, and believe that clear, concise, consistent and compelling content is basically the bees knees.

​

Throughout my career, I’ve worn many hats across a range of industries. I followed my heart from the student newspaper (shout out, Minnesota State University Moorhead) to the obit department of the local paper, to the editorial arm of a casino trade magazine, to a vitamin and supplement ecommerce company, to the marketing team at an award-winning chamber of commerce in the Midwest.

 

The core values I hold closest to my heart are compassion, courage and kindness. A typical Libra and eagle-eyed editor, CliftonStrengths says that my strengths are intellection, input, empathy, deliberative and connectedness, while the DiSC assessment reports I am conscientious and steady.

​

When I'm not wordsmithing, you can probably find me piecing together a puzzle with a podcast playing in the background, reading a celebrity memoir or business book, or rewatching the Golden Girls (I’m a total Dorothy; what about you?).
