What to expect at a glance:

To be a true content creator takes creativity, hard work, and methodology.

Ultimately, you will walk away with original content and a methodology to apply towards future work

 

About your instructor: 
After moving to Phoenix in 2016, I realized that I wanted to explore all the city had to offer, and share my findings with others seeking inspiration. In 2017, I started my blog, She Forks PHX, (now She Moves PHX) which provided a creative outlet for my writing, and gave me the opportunity to meet new people, try new things, and visit new places. In 2019, I became a Contributing Writer for The Phoenix New Times, and the following year, one for Downtown Phoenix Inc. I broke cultural stories that needed to be told, like my feature on women in beer brewing or the inaugural unveiling of the Asian District in Mesa. I also contributed stories that were featured in DTPHX’s Directory, distributed to the millions of tourists that visit Phoenix. In 2021, I delved even deeper into my craft, and produced articles for Best Western® Hotels and Resorts, Greater Phoenix Economic Council, Tempe Tourism, Visit Gilbert, Discover Gilbert, and Discover Bisbee – to name a few. Over the course of my writing career, I have been featured in AZ Central, The Know Book: 100 Women to Know and Do Business With, Voyage Phoenix, Shoutout Arizona, and Canvas Rebel.
