Time for a Change

I stepped down from my role last week. Not because of a layoff. Because it was the right choice for me. 

Since my early days in health comms almost 10 years ago, a lot has changed. I grew from editor to strategist to team lead to content strategy director. Our industry was reshaped by federal shakeups. My team weathered contract cancellations, layoffs, the end of CommunicateHealth, and a new beginning with Lumina Corps.

But one thing has stayed constant — my belief that we can make health information easier for everyone to find, understand, and use. And that belief is inspiring my next professional chapter: ✨ freelancing ✨ 

In some ways, it’s a bittersweet transition. I’ll miss my talented and driven content strategy team, our Monday morning work and life check-ins, and the time you all humored me by doing team-building at breakfast. I’ll miss the deep and collaborative relationships I’ve built with Lumina Corps’ clients — I see you, I see your mission, and I’m cheering you on. 

But I’m excited to spend more time working directly at the interface between author and audience — and using my plain language and clear communication expertise to turn complex information into content people can actually use. 

So if you’re looking for ways to make your content land with audiences at all levels of health literacy, let’s talk! I’m available for freelance writing, editing, and content strategy projects in health, science, and beyond.
