As the Senior UX Writer at Warner Bros. Discovery, I built and wrote all UX flows for the Magnolia app: the E-commerce and streaming platform for one of our prestige brands.
As a consulting copywriter for Quibi, I worked in tandem with the design agency 160over90 to build the pre-launch value prop teaser website.
Beyond show and episode descriptions, I also worked with the content team to create row titles and content collections that recommended enticing titles to users.
Peloton was a very young brand when I joined the team, so I was lucky enough to help create their first marketing website. Back then, the tech-forward bike was a new concept, so my goal was to convey the experience and sell journey as clearly as possible.
Reorganized the Slice homepage to allow for easy search, a display of our mission (while pushing app downloads), a scrolling bar of both customer/restaurant reviews and top press quotes, and implementation of sticky chat bot.
With a focus on loyalty, I worked with the UX design team to build a user flow that pushed pizzeria reordering first and new pizzeria discovery second - a huge selling point for the product to onboard pizzeria clientele.
Seamless went through a rebrand, so our web and app needed to follow suit. Myself and a team of designers worked to update the branding while optimizing the user flow to create an easier, more mouth-watering experience.
Wrote the About Us page to showcase the brand story and reorganized the nav layout.

One campaign that was very personal and important to me was my International Women’s Day Campaign. I wanted to feature all of the women-owned and operated pizzerias that we have on our platform, as this is typically a male-dominated industry. We interviewed a few female chefs and business owners to create an article for our blog, as well as offered a special discount for our women-owned and operated pizzerias. The campaign was pushed through email, paid digital, social channels, the blog, select pizzerias on our platform, and was even picked up by Food & Wine.
To celebrate National Pizza Day, I created a charitable campaign by partnering with Feeding America as well as five local charities in our biggest markets. For every order placed on Slice, we donated our fees of $1.95 to towards hunger-ending efforts. The campaign was launched through our email, paid digital ads, social channels, blog, and through flyers and social ads for all pizzerias on the platform. We also created flyers and social ads for the participating charities, and received eight press hits. We ended up raising over $60,000 for the charities.
To encourage orders without pushing discounts, I spearheaded the concept of “$0 promo codes”, which are codes customers can enter at checkout that don’t give them a discount, but rather allow them to enter contests to win prizes. One of our first campaigns utilizing the codes was National Pizza Party Day. I partnered with brands including Mike’s Hot Honey, Boylan Soda, Pipcorn and more to create a pizza party swag box that customers could win. The campaign was launched through email, social, paid digital, blog, through our pizzerias, PR, and local surprise pizza parties which we threw at community centers in our top cities.
