GitHub, Content Strategist

April 2015-Present

I am GitHub's go-to copywriter and content strategist for public facing marketing and UX copy. I come up with messaging for new products based on user and marketing research. Then I adapt into site copy. I'm currently working on content for a complete redesign of GitHub.com. Previously, I crafted a content strategy and copy for enterprise.github.com and git-lfs.github.com, including ways to deal with outdated and legacy content. I also write for the marketing team—everything from gift cards to customer stories and blog posts.
