Testimonials

I had the pleasure of working with Mia when she served as a senior copywriter on my team. She was an absolute asset from day one because of her ability to think beyond writing and truly lead with a strategic mindset.

Mia spearheaded the creation of our content style guide, setting the foundation for consistent, high-quality messaging. She also excelled in developing and refining processes that improved our workflows—an invaluable skill in the fast-paced, ever-changing environment of a startup. Her ability to see the big picture while managing the details is a rare combination.

Anyone looking for a content strategy lead or marketing manager who can bring fresh ideas, strong leadership, and a knack for building frameworks from the ground up would be lucky to have Mia on their team. She’s a true pro!

Marketing & Innovation Leader

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Mia on a major health care content initiative for the Providence Digital Innovation Group. As the managing editor for two of our top service lines, Cardiology and Neurology, Mia worked with agency writers to develop new patient-facing content that skillfully persuades consumers to choose Providence for their health care needs.

Throughout the duration of this project, Mia has proven herself to be a dedicated collaborator in support of our project goals. I came to rely on her exceptional ability to independently manage workflow with our agency writers, ensuring that the quality of our copy was not only improved but also aligned with the Providence brand voice. All the while, she kept the project on track and ensured we met our ambitious deadlines.

Mia has a keen understanding of our consumer/patient audience and excels at aligning content with their specific pain points. She has exceeded our expectations and contributed significantly to the success of our project. I have thoroughly enjoyed our collaboration.

- Coquina Deger
Providence Digital Innovation Group

Mia was the editorial glue for our content marketing team, owning the blog and review process in addition to her work as the lead content strategist and storyteller for our platform, AI, and financial empowerment content campaigns. She was the go-to person to ensure content reflected branded voice and tone, and adhered to AP guidelines. She has a keen sense of extracting and highlighting the human story from complex and technical topics, making them accessible and relatable to target audiences. As a natural networker, Mia helped our team navigate the matrixed organization, finding SMEs and partners necessary to creating thought leadership content. No matter what crazy, quick turnaround project was given to her, she accepted it with a laugh and a much-appreciated “can do” attitude. And she always leaped at the chance to learn new skills and try new approaches, staying motivated through both a thirst for new knowledge and energetic good humor.

Mia possesses a rare ability to craft compelling and impactful narratives while deeply understanding the need to target her content to the appropriate audiences and business objectives. She consistently delivered quality content that resonated with our customers.

Beyond her writing prowess, Mia was a valuable asset to the Marketing team. She is a strong collaborator, a proactive problem-solver, and a true team player. I highly recommend her for any role that requires a blend of creative talent and strategic thinking.
