Marketing & Strategic Communications Consultant

Hi, I’m Karess! I’m a Marketing & Strategic Communications Consultant with 10+ years of experience helping organizations tell compelling stories, strengthen their messaging, and connect with the audiences that matter most. I work at the intersection of strategy and storytelling, turning complex ideas into clear, engaging communications that get results. From developing a communications plan to writing the content that brings it to life, I help organizations communicate with clarity, confidence, and purpose. Here’s a bit of what you can expect from me: - Strategic Communications & Branding: Communications planning, brand messaging, campaign strategy, and audience engagement. - Copywriting, Ghostwriting, & Content Development: Website copy, social media copy, graphics, articles, blogs, newsletters, email campaigns, and marketing materials. - Editing & Proofreading: Polished, accurate content that maintains your voice and strengthens your message. - Nonprofit & Donor Communications: Fundraising campaigns, impact stories, donor communications, and event promotions. - Digital Marketing: Email marketing, content strategy, and digital campaigns. My experience spans nonprofits, education, healthcare-related communications, faith-based communications, media, and B2B, B2C, businesses of all sizes. I’m equally comfortable shaping the big-picture strategy and rolling up my sleeves to get the work done. Need a strategic thinker who can also deliver exceptional content? Let’s talk.
