Hello! 👋🏻 I'm Morgan, an OKC-based writer, marketer, and storyteller who loves learning and writing about the natural world.
Beyond my 9-to-5 leading brand marketing at an energy software company, you’ll find me hiking, biking, reading, birdwatching, and tending to my 30+ houseplants.
My current hyper-fixation? Trees! I’m enrolled in OKC Beautiful’s Community Forester program learning to advocate for a healthy city canopy, reading Sam Bloch’s “Shade: The Promise of a Forgotten Natural Resource,” and volunteering with OKC’s Office of Sustainability to update the city’s sustainability plan — specifically around natural & built environment.
And hey, I do a little contract work on the side! Want my help assembling your nature newsletter or contributing to your science or conservation publication? Use my contact page for inquiries, and I'll be in touch.

Where I volunteer:
Oklahoma Foundation for the Disabled | September 2023 - present | As a member of the OKFD board of directors and as the marketing and fundraising chair, I assist with fundraising, content strategy, and awareness efforts as part of the board’s strategic direction. I was placed on the OKFD board after graduating from the United Way of Central Oklahoma’s Board Serve program, in which I spent seven months learning the ins and outs of serving on a non-profit board. Highly recommend.
