Partner With Me

Authentic storytelling. Strategic marketing. Measurable results.

For more than 20 years, I’ve worked in marketing. Today, that includes tourism, economic development, social media, and digital content, helping destinations, organizations, and small businesses tell better stories, reach new audiences, attract visitors, and grow.

I’m the founder of Wander Write Marketing LLC and the creator of Cornfields & High Heels, a travel brand focused on authentic, approachable travel experiences, with a particular love for small towns, road trips, local food and coffee, history, seasonal events, scenic destinations, unique lodging, and slow travel.

I partner with visitor bureaus, tourism organizations, economic development agencies, hotels and lodging properties, attractions, restaurants, small businesses, and travel brands to create content that does more than showcase a destination. My goal is to help travelers see themselves there.

Why Partner With Me

My background is a little different from that of a traditional travel influencer.

I don’t just create content about places I visit. I’ve spent more than two decades working in marketing, including tourism, economic development, destination marketing, nonprofit, and small-business marketing.

That experience gives me a deeper understanding of what destinations need from a campaign and what travelers need from content. I approach partnerships from both sides: the marketer and the traveler.

As a solo traveler, I bring an independent and curious perspective to my content. I’m especially interested in showing what it’s really like to experience a destination, from finding the best local coffee shop to navigating a new town, discovering a hidden gem, staying somewhere unique, or building an entire trip around a single experience.

I earned my degree in Psychology with a focus on Business and Marketing from Indiana University. That combination has become an unexpected superpower in my work. Understanding human behavior, communication, and what motivates people helps me create content that feels genuine while still serving a strategic purpose. My content is designed to inspire people to put a destination on their list.

Experience & Recognition

My work has been featured by Fox 59, Indy Now, WISH-TV, ABC 57, CBS, the Indianapolis Business Journal, and other media outlets.

I’m a 2025 Midwest Travel Network Content Creator of the Year and a 2024 recipient of the Granger Indiana Travel Journalism Award from the Indiana Women’s Press Club. The Midwest Travel Network also recognized me for the 2026 Rising Leader/Content Creator Award.

I’ve served as a multimedia copywriter for the Carmel Christkindlmarkt, working with its marketing team on destination storytelling and digital marketing. The Indiana Tourism Association recognized the campaign with the Best Digital Marketing Campaign award in both 2024 and 2025, including 7 billion total media impressions and 566 media hits in 2024.

Let’s Work Together

Whether you’re looking for a destination storyteller, travel content creator, experienced tourism copywriter, or marketing partner who understands both sides of the industry, I’d love to hear what you’re working on.
