Writer and editor at large.
Creating brand content that is engaging, entertaining, and educational.
Relate digital magazine
“Good business relationships come from the right attitude and the right tools. Zendesk helps with the tools. Relate helps with the attitude."
Relate was a sub-branded editorial site tied to Zendesk’s flagship user conference. I wrote extensively for Relate before becoming editor, overseeing all aspects of ideation, publishing, and social media.
Our digital publication focused on top-funnel, product-agnostic content aimed to help CX professionals build better connections with customers and colleagues. We took a journalistic approach, explored relevant and timely topics affecting businesses, created onsite activations at live events, and ultimately served to nurture existing customers while driving prospects deeper into the funnel.

I write or edit many things for tech companies, but I also enjoy writing for fun and have a soft spot for local publications. (Though I’d also love to write for a few household names… 👋 The New Yorker! … Just gonna put that out into the universe. 🤞) Much of my work is product-focused, but I’ve also had fortunate opportunities to advocate for broader workplace values.
