Building your authority isn't optional. It's essential.
To attract more of the right clients, the right projects, and the right partners, you need to differentiate yourself from your peers and position yourself as an authoritative expert.
It’s not enough to be great at what you do; you must be known for what you do.
Writing articles for high-visibility publications not only allows you to share your ideas with an established audience, it also allows you to borrow the publication’s relationship with that audience. The editorial team vetted you. By publishing your work, they are signaling to their audience that you are an authoritative expert.

Hi! I’m Erica.
I started my career as a litigation attorney in Boston, and I credit my legal training with teaching me how to ask the right questions, craft a persuasive argument, and communicate complex ideas with power and clarity.
For two decades, I worked as a copywriter, grant writer, ghostwriter, writing instructor, content marketer, freelance writer, and editor for private companies and professional associations.
Today, I help consultants build their authority by writing articles for high-visibility publications. I’ve been on both sides of the pitch, so I know how to capture an editor’s attention. I also know that the right article in the right publication can open the door to countless opportunities.
Erica helped launch my publication experience.
“Erica helped launch my publication experience in an efficient manner and empowered me with the skills and information to do it on my own. She is incredibly knowledgeable, warm, and funny — which makes working with her valuable and fun. Even after we completed our work together, she continued to celebrate and champion my successes, which went beyond my expectations.”
Dr. Robin Buckley, Cognitive Behavioral Coach
