ABOUT MARIA NAZOS

I’m an eclectic thinker, natural editor, and collaborative storytelling professional with a range of content strategy, copywriting, and journalism experience throughout nonprofit, E-commerce, higher education, and B2B settings. Having worked as a Content Manager at Nebraska Children, a major public-private nonprofit, if you want a strategic communications point person, I’d be thrilled to take over your new Communications Associate role. My talents lie in my storytelling skills; I LOVE to transform subject matter and research into compelling content. As a Content Strategist at Cozy Design, I managed multiple internal and external relationships and projects for clients ranging from B2B SaaS organizations to nonprofits. My role entailed transforming SaaS subject matter into dynamic blogs, whitepapers, eBooks, and social media content. Finally, I was responsible for developing and maintaining the content calendar, social media database, and analytics, which I’m happy to report are still thriving. Before Cozy, as the Content Manager at a major public-private nonprofit, I grew our blog traffic from yearly views to Meanwhile, I collaborated with communities and executives to create relevant stories. My passion includes weaving complex initiatives into a seamless, socially-conscious narrative. Finally, I tracked our marketing metrics, which propelled me to create a more robust content strategy and calendar, resulting in up to 200% social media engagement growth! Before Nebraska Children, I worked as a Senior Copywriter at Spreetail, an E-commerce company. My strategic thinking, attention to detail, and communication skills grew, especially after overseeing a SKU rewrite of over products. My position called for the ability to manage multiple projects while leading workshops on industry best practices. Meanwhile, I demonstrated a strong understanding of SEO by creating blogs, product content, buying guides, and landing pages.
