      Senior Copywriter and Project Manager

      As a senior marketing copywriter for Elsevier's award-winning in-house creative team, I was responsible for supporting the marketing department's email, print, web, and social media initiatives. I developed the messaging surrounding our world-class medical content for both B2C and B2B audiences, seeing every project through from inception to completion. I also mentored off-site copywriters to adhere to Elsevier's styles and standards, and partnered with internal and external designers and art directors to ensure a cohesive look for all deliverables. I'm exceptionally awesome at juggling multiple projects at once, on tight deadlines and often with limited resources. Show less
