The environment is always on my mind when I consider how marketing can make an impact. Inspired by moss—an ancient soul that hugs the trees and purifies the air—I wanted to keep a connection to earth front and center when I was coming up with a concept for the studio…to evoke that feeling when you step into a cool spot in the woods or find a soft place to sit in the shade. 

Through Mossy Copy, I endeavor to work with brands that use clean, sustainable materials, circular systems, and harmonious chains of supply.
