LET’S CREATE A WEBSiTE THAT SPEAKS DiRECTLY iNTO YOUR DREAM CLiENTS’ SOULS
TEACHER. WRiTER. CREATiVE.
For ten years as a high school English teacher, my students loved the phrase, “I know what I want to say, but I don’t know how to say it!” And my response would always be: “I can’t write it for you!”
But as a copywriter, that’s quite literally my job.
My time in the classroom continually challenged me with new ways to be engaging, creative, and analytical—all with a lot of patience, and of course, a little humor.
I mean, if I can sell teenagers on Of Mice and Men and The Crucible (two of my personal favs, but, ya know…kids), I can definitely sell your brand.
Adding web design to the mix was a natural next step, because no matter what I’m doing, I’m gonna make sure it looks good.
AUTHENTiCiTY OVER EVERYTHiNG
You can imagine the head tilts when I told people I was going with “Kinda Weird Studio,” but that didn’t stop me. I live by the phrase “Be kind; stay weird,” so why not make it the heart of my business?
When we work together, I’ll remain the most authentic version of me, while capturing the most authentic version of you.
ARE WE LONG LOST FRiENDS?
I have one husband, zero children, and four pets.
My big mean scary pitbull (insert eye roll here) Ruby, has taken the role of Queen of the House, but before that, she answered to our black cat Salem, who crossed the rainbow bridge in October 2024.
My two male cats, Remi and Marlin, spend their time chasing absolutely nothing, playing with each other, and occasionally wondering if we’d notice if they ate our sugar glider, Hamlet.

I have a BA in English with a minor in psych, and an MS in Secondary Education. My entire 10-year teaching career was in urban, Title I high schools, and my students were hands down the best part of the job.
Leaving the profession was one of the scariest things I have ever done, but it was 100% necessary (big advocate for mental health over here). The transition from teacher to work-for-myself-er has been a wild ride, but so much fun!
