Alaska Airlines - My account Mileage Plan beta test

Alaska Airlines feature section - community involvement
In 2019, Alaska Airlines launched an effort called LIFT as an umbrella program to guide how we talk about all of the ways we're involved in the communities we live in and fly to every day. For this section, I researched our existing website content for all of the places we already talked about our community involvement, and made recommendations about what content needed to be written. I worked with project owner Laura LeDoux and our design team to build this new section as a hub, writing and using SEO best practices to unify the good work from all these separate sections and departments in one easy-to-use spot.
Alaska Airlines February 2020 homepage
From 2016-2020, I've been responsible for the AlaskaAir.com homepage copy. This includes long term placements with external clients, like the Bank of America credit card, and shorter terms placements, which include monthly sales.

From January - July 2020, I worked with our company's accessibility expert Ray Prentice and the company Infiniteach to both write and refine copy within the app they were building. This is app is the first of its kind, designed for first-time flyers, kids traveling alone as unaccompanied minors, or guests with cognitive and developmental disabilities including autism, Fly for All helps take the anxiety out of air travel by walking them through the steps needed to get ready to fly.
Alaska Airlines feature section - military and veteran benefits
This section was created in 2018, as a way to clarify and unify the information we have to help military members and their families travel with us. Working with SEO specialist Shawn Huber and content strategist Bryan Perkins, we identified this content gap during our content audit. I researched and gathered all the military-related info I could find, and talked with our military liaison and policy teams to make sure I correctly included all of the benefits we offer. Shawn and I collaborated to make sure that both site structure and content adhered to SEO best practices.

I wrote an article about packing for music festivals; the long version was posted to the Alaska Airlines blog, and a condensed version was printed in Beyond Magazine, June 2017 edition.
Alaska Airlines policy page - children traveling alone
I've been responsible for copy creation and updates on AlaskaAir.com policy pages from 2016-2020. I rewrote and reorganized the policy language on this page, working with the Karen Weaver and Kara Photi on the policy and customer service teams to make sure it included all the latest updates to the program, while also making it much more friendly and easier for guests to understand.
Alaska Airlines feature section - Asia Global Partners
The Alaska to Asia page was created as a way to spotlight how easy it is to use or earn Mileage Plan miles flying to Asia with global airline partners. I worked with designers Amanda Stockbridge and Brandy Collins to combine clear, concise, and useful copy with clean, vibrant imagery to tell this story.
Alaska Airlines - corporate page - Lyft
We're launching a series of corporate landing pages, focused on serving the top companies who fly with Alaska Airlines. This page for Lyft is one of the most recent examples we've completed. With the corporate sales team and our director of content serving as stakeholders, I wrote content that best highlights the benefits we an offer these business travelers. I worked with web developer Steve Turner to create a layout that would neatly combine overall benefits with specific deals that we offer Lyft.
