Amber E.

Fractional Content Leader, Original Research Enthusiast, and Real Estate Investor

I'm a lifelong writer and trained journalist turned content marketer. For the past 15 years, I've built and executed content strategies for a Fortune 500 martech/adtech giant and several early-stage B2B startups. As a fractional content leader, I partner with B2B marketing leaders to develop editorial calendars, supervise writers, write/edit content, and project manage the publishing function. I'm a T-shaped marketer, with deep expertise in content and a natural propensity for organization and process. I aim to make life a little easier for busy founders or CMOs who understand the value of unique and purposeful content. I also specialize in original research (including surveys and first-party data analysis). I live in the upper peninsula of Michigan and spend my spare time mountain biking, nordic skiing, exploring, and building a real estate investment portfolio. To learn more about me and my ethos around content, follow me on LinkedIn.
