Content Creation
I’ve been in this game for a minute. I worked (and played) through the content boom, the pivot to video, the clickbait heyday, the new pivot to video, the rise of AI and every algorithm update along the way. I am skilled at producing content for social media platforms, email inboxes, marketing sites and online shopping destinations.
Below are some of the companies and brands I’ve created content for. (Still working with the formatting here, please forgive!)
Here are a few projects I played a leading role in that I’m very proud of.
Writing
The core of everything I do is storytelling, and that love began with writing. I love smashing, flipping and turning prose inside out to create the right vibe for the story I’m telling and the audience I’m engaging with.
Below, I’ve linked a few of my favorite clips.

Tackling Difficult In-Office Conversations
ViacomCBS
“[Doriean] brings powerful editorial and people skills, and a strong POV and vision she can command on the page. She takes care of those who count on her, which is so important in a leader.”
“In my three years reporting directly to Doriean at CBS Interactive, I felt wholly supported in my position. Doriean is an excellent listener and an empathetic manager who has helped me grow professionally—not only as a writer, but as a project manager and a leader.”
“As a leader, [she’s] the ultimate advocate. [She] has [her] team’s back but will also tell them when they’re wrong. ”
