I am the founder of Awakened Narratives Studio, LLC, a Columbia-based consulting business that helps mission-driven organizations clarify their message, strengthen their content strategy, and tell stories that create meaningful connection and social impact. With more than 15 years of experience in writing, editing, marketing, and research—and advanced education in political science, communications, journalism, e-commerce, and marketing research—I combine narrative strategy with audience insight to help businesses communicate with clarity and purpose. I am also building additional e-commerce ventures focused on curated and custom goods, reflecting my commitment to entrepreneurship, community connection, and sustainable local business growth.
