Nerdy Portfolio

Health and wellness blog articles, thought leadership, and more.

(plus some internet commentary 💻)

Here's where you can get a look at my nerdy collaborations with clients.

And these are indeed collaborations—my writing process is a partnership, not a solo effort. You won't find me disappearing after our kickoff call and re-emerging only when the writing is done. I stay in touch throughout the process to ensure I deliver high-quality, relevant content for your health and wellness business.
