Hello, I’m Blayklee
A longtime storyteller, editor and media strategist with experience producing a variety of publications.
how we tell stories is changing as new tech emerges.
I’m not afraid to try new things (hello, AI), and I’m not opposed to things that are tried and true (“knocking on doors”). I will help you find the ideal angles, platforms and audience for your story.
professional work
I’ve spent my writing career working primarily for local publications in Tulsa, Oklahoma. I cover everything from arts and culture to business and news.
When I’m not freelancing, I’m amplifying messaging and communications for Oklahoma’s premiere land-grant institution, Oklahoma State University, where I serve as the assistant director of communications.
Recent personal endeavors

DIY bathroom renovation
My wife and I did this ourselves, save for installing the tub. Building drawers is not as easy as you might think — but only if you’ve never thought about building them.

Raising a toddler
Does much more need to be said here? He’s a beautiful little tornado.

Land restoration
At the heart of Indigenous land, I’m passionate about rehabilitating ecosystems through gardening, forest restoration and educating others about the wonders of Earth.
