Career FAQs

What is your job?

Now THAT is a great question — and one I’ve been trying to find a short answer to for some time now. The truth is, I’ve done a lot of jobs over the years: I’ve been a staff writer for “The Rib,” Brown’s (best) satire and comedy group, a Production Assistant for The Daily Show, a social media ghostwriter for CEOs and executives, an essay coach for high school students looking to craft compelling college essays, a freelance writer of nonfiction, essays and humor, and a copywriter for Sesame Workshop, the nonprofit behind Sesame Street.

Did you say “Sesame Street” as in Elmo?

The very one! Elmo was my first word — and he was also my first boss out of college. During my two years as a member of Sesame Workshop’s small but mighty Audience Development team, I worked to create Webby Award-winning content and copy that engaged and delighted over 20 million active followers across all major social media platforms. I also wrote dozens of SEO-friendly content marketing pieces for distribution across web and newsletters. And in addition to my role as a Copywriter, I served as the team’s Administrator, providing daily, weekly, and monthly data analytics reporting, as well as overseeing the team’s calendar, finances, and legal documents.

What does it mean to be a ghostwriter for CEOs and Executives?

Are you my mom? Because she asked the exact same thing. As a freelance content curator for Qnary, a leading online brand reputation management company, I created high-impact social media content for CEOs, executives, and other high-powered professionals. Every week, I made dozens of tailored posts that aligned with each client’s unique voice, strategically enhancing their personal brands and positioning them as thought leaders in their respective industries. I was also in charge of scheduling those posts, and monitoring them to ensure they were reaching specific audiences at optimal times.

What does being a PA for The Daily Show entail?

Another excellent question. Being a freelance PA means that the hard-working people at The Daily Show know they can count on me to jump in whenever they need an extra hand. Whether it’s assisting with field shoots by managing logistics, overseeing equipment setup, scouting New Yorkers who look like they would make for good interviews, or holding cartons of eggs in the freezing cold for Josh Johnson to crack, I’m your girl!

Can I just see your resume instead of reading all this?

Sure. But just know you’re no fun.
