It’s nice to meet you, I’m Carly!

I am deeply passionate about using storytelling to better the world.

This sentiment has run through my career as a communication consultant, my writing as a trauma-informed journalist, and in 2022, inspired me to found Voices Editorial.

Voices Editorial is a marketing and communication consultancy providing trauma-informed writing, editing, and marketing strategy and communication management services to mission-driven organizations and nonprofits. I am currently open to new clients and projects.

Check out my services and set up an intro call at voiceseditorial@gmail.com.

As an experienced writer, editor, and communication manager, I have focused my career on helping organizations develop and amplify key communications through authentic, community-centered storytelling – with a particular focus on distilling data-heavy, complicated issues into stories that feel personal and accessible.

Currently, I run Voices Editorial full-time and provide expert trauma-informed marketing and communication services to nonprofits and organizations within the gender-based violence, gender equity, health, and digital media fields. My current and past clients include: Polygraph for YouTube, Exhale to Inhale, The New York City Alliance Against Sexual Assault, Women in the Digital Economy Fund (WiDEF), The PurpLE Health Foundation, South Asian SOAR, The Home Edit, Resource Sharing Project, and more.

Previously, I worked as The Rockefeller Foundation’s first-ever Innovation Storytelling Manager where I developed our team’s editorial strategies and stories capturing the impact of our team’s 60+ grantees representing a total portfolio value of over $50M. The team’s focus was on innovative and emerging technology, in particular Artificial Intelligence, which became the focus of my storytelling projects and allowed me to publish stories on the emergence of Hello Tractor, AI tools to end forced labor, and the economic growth potential of digital public infrastructure.

Developing my skills as a data storyteller began in my previous role working with YouTube for 5+ years as a Culture and Trends Specialist. In this role, I studied and wrote about how trends and communities form online – research that influenced brand events, key marketing campaigns, and developing creator content.

My keen ability to source and produce a captivating story comes from my years as a freelance journalist – a passion I still pursue. My work has been featured in HelpGuide, Psychology Today, SELF Magazine, YOGA + Life, NBC, Ms. Magazine, Thrillist, The Daily Dot, and more. I love writing features and human interest stories and over the years, have developed a focus covering stories about mental health, sexual and intimate partner violence, online communities, reproductive justice, and survivorship.

Outside of all this: I am a cat mum to four mischievous rescues, a major bibliophile, an ice tea connoisseur, and firm believer that Clue is the best movie of all time.
