• Support marketing teammates with content needs, from writing original email copy to editing/reviewing customer communications.
  
• Serve as the grammar, usage and punctuation 'clearing house' of the organization by reviewing, proofing and editing copy in communications, press releases, etc. on a periodic basis.
  
• Participate in the pre-production process by reviewing creative and making creative recommendations for each piece that will bring the copy to life.
