Hello there :)

It's a pleasure to make your virtual acquaintance. I'm Merritt, a creative copywriter, editor, content and SEO specialist, and sometimes singer/songwriter from Kansas City. Go Royals and Chiefs Kingdom!

I earned my bachelor's degree in journalism from Eastern Illinois University and minored in public relations and advertising. Fun facts: I also played Division I tennis and led EIU's student-run PR firm.

For over a decade now though, I’ve worked as a writer, editor, and marketing and communications manager for several businesses and nonprofits. I've had the pleasure of working for incredible companies, including Pro Athlete, Sertoma Inc., Hearing Charities of America, KC Homes and Style Magazine, A Place for Mom, and Love & Company.

As a multifaceted writer and storyteller, I have the ability to create content for a variety of needs like videos, infographics, social media, ads, print and digital publications, websites, e-newsletters, and blog posts. I've also become quite the SEO nerd.

I’m highly empathetic, collaborative, and love learning new skills and useless fun facts. In my spare time, you can probably find me singing, hiking, working on home projects, watching crime documentaries, or drinking delicious iced mochas.
