- Adapt long-form articles, webinars, and podcasts into snackable social nuggets that reinforce a unified brand voice.
- Draft thumb-stopping headlines, captions, and calls to action while adhering to accessibility standards.
- Document style guidelines, post templates, and visual references in Notion (or a similar knowledge base).

- Coordinate with paid media, influencer, and product teams to align organic storytelling with broader campaigns.
