I'm a New York-based writer and strategist working with brands, creators, and causes
to find the words to make people feel something and do something.

Hi, I'm Mackenzie

I make people care.

There's so much you can do with a few words and a little strategy.

a little strategy.

I tell stories that move people: to buy, to donate, to sign up, to watch, to learn, to ask, to share, to engage. I’ve spent the last decade blending strategy, storytelling, and creative operations to connect with audiences, turn ideas into action, and help creative teams do their best work.

If you've been sitting on an awesome design idea, but aren't quite sure how to execute it, I would 100% recommend reaching out to Mackenzie.

FORMER 826CHI COMMUNICATIONS MANAGER

Mackenzie created a product for us that aligned with our style and goals, but also pushed our brand forward.

FORMER H.O.M.E. DIRECTOR OF DEVELOPMENT

She was able to take a short conversation and a couple reference photos and turn it into a work of art that our staff and donors love.

I used to be so overwhelmed by data and processes, but now I can't imagine working without them.
