What superpower do you bring to work?
Writing is my superpower. I love finding the words to create interest in an idea or product and to resonate with the audience.
How do you refine and sharpen your skills?
I read lots of different styles of writing—fiction, memoir, sci-fi, news, feature articles and opinion pieces. But honestly, it's pretty easy to keep sharp, because words are all around us, all the time.
When I'm watching TV I'm thinking about how they wrote the script to create multiple storylines that eventually coincide. When I read or watch the news, I analyze how they structure their arguments to provoke thought or convince the viewer.
What excites you about your work and our industry?
Interesting/new ways of telling a story or describing an old idea in a new way really inspire me.
With so much history and so many concepts we've collectively already explored, it's refreshing to shift perspective, think about something in a new way, and select the right words to surprise and delight our audience.
What’s the coolest thing you’ve done or place you’ve visited?
It's really hard to pick the coolest place I've visited, but these are my top 3:
- Sintra, Portugal - Moorish Castle & Pena Palace
- Czech Republic - Prague Christmas market
- Galway, Cliffs of Moher, &Aran Islands - pub crawls & bike rides
What makes Spiro™ stand out from other agencies?
Everyone here, no matter the role, seems to have a creative take on things. We're always ready to jump in and see how we can find a creative way to solve a problem or accomplish our goals.
What’s an interesting fact that people may be surprised to learn about you?
I bought a house in 2021 and have been renovating it since. I've learned a lot about home reno and DIY home projects and could probably talk you through refinishing your floors.
