About Me

MY NAME IS ZOE

I’m a British born copywriter who made Encinitas, CA home 20 years ago.

I’ve been helping brands with their content strategy and copywriting needs ever since co-founding a consumer goods company (Mizu Life) back in 2008.

My brand experience began at Burton Snowboards back in the day, shortly followed by my time as an editor and contributor for snowboard magazines around the world.

Today, I work on all aspects of copywriting for brands, from those in the startup stage to global leaders. I have deep experience in working on projects that involve messaging hierarchy and brand positioning — often working directly with founders, helping them discover who they are, how they want to sound, and how to communicate that effectively.
