emily wagner
Consultant in Portland, Oregon
I have a background in journalism and graphic design and a passion to help other small business owners clearly communicate their message to potential clients or customers.
I’m one of those people who gets giddy over details — finding typos in books or newspapers, being organized, checking off lists. Sometimes I even add items I’ve already completed to my lists just so I can have the pleasure of checking them off and reflecting later on all that I’ve accomplished.
In college I discovered a love for writing and that I have a knack for that and editing. When it came time to choose a major, journalism seemed like a good fit. While I didn’t end up going on to become a magazine editor like I originally envisioned, I did discover that my education enabled me to be a better communicator overall and translated to a variety of avenues.
After college, I ended up working primarily in oncology for a local private practice that was later acquired by a university hospital system. There I continued to hone my communication skills, working my way up the ladder until I became a project coordinator and the executive assistant to the CEO and COO. I loved the challenge of balancing multiple projects, writing and editing policies and procedures and generally being proficient and paying close attention to detail.
Then came my two amazing little daughters, one right after the other (15 months apart), and I became a stay-at-home mom. I’m still home with them homeschooling (a whole new challenge), which is one of the reasons being a communications and marketing consultant working from home has been such a good fit.
My primary goal is to capture the essence of your identity as a small business owner, creating a brand both visually and in writing that showcases your individual personality, strengths and passion.
