- Craft compelling narratives that increase reach, awareness, consideration, conversion, and long-term customer value.
- Write and implement messaging concepts, brand tone of voice, and messaging framework guidelines for all creative projects, from campaign themes and social copy to web experiences and customer stories.

- Partner with event stakeholders to conceptualize, scope, design, and produce all copy and content for events, including web experience, campaign deliverables, signage, printed collateral, video interstitials, and digital signage.
- Provide thought-out points of view and lead presentations on campaign messaging, from high-level themes and taglines to persona-targeted messaging.
