Video work

I've worked agency-side and client-side as a copywriter, strategist, and creative brainstormer for nearly ten years. Each day, I'm living and breathing web, app, social, and print copy—and trying to figure out if I can somehow involve cats in everything—as I deliver the creative punch to brands like Jive Software, Microsoft, Intel, HP, Expedia, One&Only Resorts, Inspirato, Columbia Sportswear, Carl Zeiss, Jeld-Wen, and others.

I got back from traveling and found my free box basically empty--joyyy!✨🕊💕 ... Added some GORGEOUS stickers from @katelouisepowell and @tallys_art, plus a copy of @vegnews, a recipe for 7-layer dip from @minimalistbaker (Jesus Chrysler, is it good), a guide to PDX veg restaurants, and more. (#pdxvegans and #portland #vegcurious peoples--if you see this box near the Cesar Chavez Trader Joe's, please help yourself!) 🌱❤️🐰🐮🐷🐔🐣🐠🦈🐯🐝🦇🦆🐢💕✌️💪#peacestartsonyourplate #vegan #vegano #stickeractivism #portland #pdx #eatyourethics #animrights #getvegucated #watchdominion #gamechangers #cowspiracy #dairyisscary #februdairy #veganuary #veganrecipes #vegansofig #peacebeginsonyourplate #veganlife #veganbox

Next up from the #icancookvegan cookbook: Angel Hair Tapenade with Tofu and Arugula. 🔥✨🕊❤️🌱 We ended up eating all the fried tofu last night (an entire block. Gone.), so today's leftovers have curried soy curls instead (Mediterranean-Indian fusion anyone?). I also used kale instead of arugula #becauseportland. But if you're looking for a delicious, simple tofu marinade: @betterthanbouillon's veggie chicken broth, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, and Italian seasoning. BAM. MY WORD. ... As we ate this, I was like, "hey Zach, did you ever guess that, in our 11th year together, I'd randomly develop an ability to cook like this?" Ok; this sounds like bragging, but this a testiment to @isachandra's cookbook and not anything about me. Holy crap. I CAN cook vegan. 😬😳🥰 I also realized this was maybe the first time I personally have EVER fried tofu, in my nine years of being a vegetarian and vegan. It was easy and tasted divine and I'm SO SORRY @readingpokertells that it took me so long to get brave. 🥺 ... #vegan #vegansofig #learntocook #vegano #isadoesit #tapenade #soycurls #kaleyeah #pdxvegans #nooch #traderjoesvegan #peoplescoop

BANANA. FRENCH. TOAST. Oh my word. So easy. So delish. So banana-y. God bless you, @isachandra. I added @nancysyogurt (oat yogurt!) instead of butter to make it a bit tangy. --- I have the very human problem of seeing food and then wanting to eat it immediately. Even an emoji is enough to make me seek out a donut. Or cupcake. Or whatever. 🍩 🧁🍪 🥞 🍸 This morning, I saw a @vegnews IG post about french toast and I knew what I had to make for breakfast. ... That recipe used vegan egg powder, something I bought the SECOND we went vegan...and then never used. (I pulled it out of the freezer this morning and saw it had expired in 2017. 🤦‍♀️) So I turned to the cookbook @readingpokertells got me for Christmas: I Can Cook Vegan. ... I've always been the backup cook--Zach cooks every meal and I feel guilty and make a dessert every so often. Or I go all out on some elaborate recipe (and take forever). So for my new year's resolution, I'm doing the cooking, and I'm cooking through this book, start to finish, (which is how Isa designed it, so you learn skills and then build on them). But I skipped ahead today and discovered her recipe for BANANA FRENCH TOAST. ... I love using bananas as the egg replacement! It adds so much flavor and gooeyness to the batter. And it was super simple and fast to make. If you're not a banana fan, you could swap it with a flax egg (ground flax seeds + water) or maybe applesauce. ... This is the third thing I've made from I Can Cook Vegan and I've loved each recipe. I definitely recommend it if you're new to vegan cooking, curious, or an established junk food vegan looking to add in some wholesome foods. (You can pick up a copy at @herbivoreclothing on SE 12th & Stark, across from Revolution Hall!) ... #pdxvegans #vegansofig #brunch #frenchtoast #bananafrenchtoast #veganbreakfast #veganrecipes #veganfood #isadoesit #icancookvegan #icancook #traderjoes #traderjoesvegan
