Senior copywriter, brand strategist, and screenwriter, crafting words that work, no matter the word count.

I’m Skye….

Skye Emerson - Writing

True story: at age 8, I wrote a poem about life insurance while my classmates penned odes to dinosaurs and recess. Clearly, I was destined for marketing greatness.

Since that fateful start, I've crafted narratives for everything from faux plants ("forever green, never seen watering") to sports apps ("sweat tracking that doesn't track sweat") to rom-coms ("boy meets girl, loses girl, hires ghostwriter").

Whether I'm scripting the perfect meet-cute or crafting copy that converts, the tools remain the same: a killer premise, an irresistible structure, and words that move both markets and minds.

I'm a storyteller who swings between screenplays and sales pages with the same fundamental belief: every brand has a third-act revelation just waiting to be written.

As good as my word(s)…

By day, I craft strategy and copy that converts for brands across advertising and marketing landscapes—juggling everything from snappy social posts to comprehensive web content and video scripts that stick the landing.

By night (and weekends, and lunch breaks), I'm an award-winning screenwriter with a short film in post-production, a feature film on the festival circuit, and another feature gearing up for cameras to roll.

What unites these worlds? An insatiable curiosity for human stories and a slight addiction to deadlines. Whether I'm leading a team of copywriters on a new creative campaign, or structuring a third act twist, I bring the same narrative obsession to the table.
