THAT’S ME!

Alyson here, a writer working hard to tell stories that move people and culture.

I’ve done it all for brands big and small. I’ve branded a coffee company, a s’mores shop, and a rock climbing gym. I’ve developed a voice, tone, and messaging hierarchy for a nonprofit in Cambodia and brought it to life across an entire website. I’ve scripted countless videos celebrating the innovation and inspiration behind Microsoft technology. And, I’ve come up with a thousand different ways for Xbox to break the internet. Branding and advertising are what I know.

But what I love? That’s storytelling.

It’s what brings the work together and gives it meaning. It’s what sparks change and inspires action. It’s what connects people to one another. Finding those profound human truths and letting them shine through the cracks, that’s what my work is all about.

A young woman with long, braided hair, a nose ring, and blue eyes is taking a selfie outdoors. She is wearing a navy blue Columbia beanie and a brown fleece jacket. Next to her, a small brown dog with closed eyes is lying on a person wrapped in a patterned blanket, resting on a rocky surface with a log behind them.
