THE STYLESHAKER

Creator of TheStyleShaker.com: a guide to clean beauty, skincare & beyond.

  • I've applied my two decades of experience in e-commerce, content creation and digital marketing to develop a turnkey content strategy that converts, an editorial calendar that pivots on performance metrics, win-win partnerships and a trusted brand with a community of 50k and growing.

  • Website traffic (2020-2021), users not just impressions, increased by 256% (37k-137k) organically with a decreased bounce rate of 5.56% thanks to small, consistent, data-backed (blog) content and navigation tweaks (no paid marketing).


WALMART.COM

Senior Manager, Social Content & Copy Lead

  • I've been brought on to the organic social team to create a cohesive, impactful, customer-centric messaging strategy for the entire Walmart.com social ecosystem (including the launch of livestream shopping events).

  • I lead copy and messaging for all (2021) Walmart Live livestream shopping events. Recent successes include: Pioneer Woman, Drew Barrymore and UOMA Beauty by Sharon C.

  • Year-to-date engagement for FB (FBS), IG (IGS and shops) and TikTok has increased 305%.

  • The team has exceeded the 2021 goal of 1mil TikTok followers and gross revenue is tracking to hit our goal of increasing 33% over last year.

Senior Manager, Editorial Content

  • With a team less than half the size of the prior year (2019), I executed a strategic shift in content placements to "fewer, better," leveraging data-backed decisions and strong relationships within the organization to drive an increase in revenue of 34% over the previous year. See custom content for full-file emails (left).

  • Created an in-house content creator agency to support increased internal demand for on-site, email and social experiences. I was a content creator "matchmaker," supporting my internal partners by hand-picking the best talent for their on and off-site campaigns.

  • From Sept '19 to Feb '20, we onboarded 20+ creators whose placements generated a reach of 691k+ and garnered an average brand sentiment rating of over 80% positive.

  • In Nov 2018 I tested our first story-driven, 'shoppable-content' landing destination featuring micro-influencer and custom imagery that generated the highest conversion rate of all editorial content published that year and over $23k in revenue in less than 2 months (average editorial revenue for 6-month time frame was $30k).

  • Organized my 'shoppable-content' into a template the editorial team then used to scale over holiday and beyond!
