Polo Ralph Lauren
Full-time copywriter and editorial writer. Creator of Ask Ralph, an original editorial advice column written in Ralph Lauren's voice. Also wrote fashion-show communications, style guides, and features for Polo.com Magazine.
THE WRITING PORTFOLIO
A way with words.
An eye for what works.
I've written for iconic fashion and beauty brands, helped translate a designer's vision into everyday advice, and spent years testing the products that promise to make our lives better.
The common thread is curiosity: what makes something desirable, what makes it useful, and how do you tell the difference?
My work spans brand copywriting, editorial storytelling, product education, and independent reviews.
