Welcome!
I’m Jolie.

Writer. Storyteller. Former higher education admin. Oxford Comma enthusiast. Multi-hyphenate human.

Formal (and informal) labels aside, my diverse background has shaped my empathy-led approach to writing.

Whether you need blog content or button text, I turn complex ideas into clear, engaging words that turn readers into informed and empowered action-takers.

I could wax poetic about the magic of words, but I’ll spare you (this time).

Let the writing speak for itself.

You understand that intentional storytelling takes time. Admittedly, that’s possibly why compiling it all keeps falling to the bottom of the agenda (no judgment here!).

You’re not interested in misleading language that leads your audience astray. Instead, you want messaging and experiences that guide people to a resounding “Yes!” while leaving them feeling understood.

Trusting someone to nurture your storytelling can feel vulnerable. But, no matter what…

…your story will always be yours to tell.

Sometimes part of this process means getting support in curating words and experiences that connect with and guide the right people.

I’m here to help make those connections happen.

It (likely) all started with a library card.

As a child, I spent hours in my own world, wandering through books that took me to universes like and unlike my own.

As a daughter of immigrants, I often felt caught between two worlds, wondering what my own story had to offer and how I’d shape my path forward.

With a Communications degree in hand, I began as a tech copywriter. Feeling disconnected from the work, I found my way back to higher education, where I met thousands of students advocating for their goals as future leaders. Later, I earned my MEd in Higher Education Administration to better support tomorrow’s changemakers.

After nearly five years in the profession, unexpected circumstances led me to leave the traditional workplace – right before the global pandemic (woof, I know).

In a time of unknown, I built an online leadership platform to serve marginalized entrepreneurs, corporate leaders, and artists. I developed a content strategy from the ground up, connecting with inspiring individuals across the globe. Eventually, I sunsetted the business and transitioned into customer success.

But, the urge to write never goes away – it’s like an itch that needs to be scratched (IYKYK). I purchased a new web domain and expanded my writing services to support values-led brands.

All of my experiences have allowed me to do what I do best: lead with curiosity, blend storytelling into strategy, and make the way people interact with information feel more approachable, accessible, and human.

When we work together, we’ll make sure every word works harder for you and the people you serve.

Away from my laptop, you can find me…

Sipping on matcha lattes, watching a k-drama with my partner, baking something not-too-sweet, indoor cycling to 2010s remixes, picnicking by the Boston waterfront, reading multiple books at once, daydreaming about traveling somewhere warm, and exploring the outdoors (or getting comfortable on the couch) with my irresistibly cute pup, Basil.

Most importantly,
I believe…

Stories shape how we see the world – and how we can change it.

Each one is unique, offering space to reflect, dream, and take action.

I approach our work as a collaborative partnership that’s open and flexible, with a willingness to grow. Together, we commit to widening our perspective and are comfortable with shifting our thinking as we learn.

Here’s how I know we’ll make great partners.

You also care about…

  • Belonging

    We deserve to be embraced in the intersectional identities that we hold. Being in affirming communities means we have the opportunity to make a more equitable and inclusive future a reality.

  • Compassion

    We will likely never have or know the full story. Having space for compassion allows us to broaden our perspective, and understand that we are complex beings. With more grace and empathy, we give each other and ourselves space for evolution.

  • Connection

    Human connections are the threads that strengthen our communities. Being connected with each other makes it so we can share, collaborate, and build something greater than our individual efforts.

  • Curiosity

    Being curious is continuing to ask questions. Sometimes that means accepting that there’s no answer (yet), and creates an open dialogue for new solutions. Lifelong learning is a commitment to expanding beyond the constraints that exist, so we can improve and grow.

If you vibe with all of this…

I’ve got good news: I’m the writer you’ve been looking to hire.
