- Arithmetic’s blog. I wrote many posts and edited writers who pitched and wrote content. Hundreds of posts drove more than 250,000 clicks to Arithmetic’s website. Our most popular story attempted to serve as quality content marketing bridged with a clickbait headline: Sex & Acne: Three Real Reasons Why Making Love Helps You Have Clearer Skin.

In April of 2016, my #KeepMissionRed hashtag electrified San Francisco transit riders, lit up Twitter with more than 200,000 impressions in its first days, garnered significant press, and drove dozens of transit activists to a crucial public meeting. Until recently, I wrote most of the posts for the San Francisco Transit Riders on Facebook and Twitter.
