A snapshot of some of my previous freelance work, including articles from my time as an editor at Wetpaint (plus some article titles I wouldn’t dream of making up).
April 2017: Foreword for “Spoiled Milk” on The Photographic Journal, a photo essay covering the symbols of privilege.
Fall 2016: Brand positioning for SeatGeek.
Summer 2016: Product descriptions for Penrose Hill, a wine delivery service.
Summer 2016: CBS email copy (below)
