About The Redhead

Writer, disruptive presence, devil’s advocate.

SEO copywriting takes a unique savvy, extensive research and the ability to communicate and collaborate with other web professionals for a superior end product. I work primarily with web design firms, agencies and site owners, and am no stranger to market research and competitor analysis.

For businesses looking to tap-into the wave of social media and capitalize on social networking techniques, I review needs, available platforms and applicable focuses for your online efforts. My clients receive max benefit in minimal time and avoid the, “Someone told me I should be on Twitter” crap. After all, not everyone belongs on Twitter. Why on earth would you work with such an opinionated redhead?

Specialties:

SEO copywriting for the web, branding & identity solutions, tag lines, social media marketing, social networking for businesses, blogging and ghost blogging, short & long-form fiction/non-fiction, editorial, advertising copy, financial markets, real estate, extreme sports.

I’m also rather talented when it comes to devouring jalapeño poppers and the random bag of Cool Ranch Doritos, can belt-out Janis Joplin’s “Mercedes Benz” a capella, and do (so I’m told) brilliant vocal impressions of both Golum/Smegel from Lord of the Rings and Bart Simpson (not from Lord of the Rings).

In the winter, I climb ice and other snowy structures. Crampons have nothing to do with my menstrual cycle. In the warmer months, I’m on a bike or rock face or mountain top when I’m not breaking bones.
