I'm a communications consultant, content strategist, writer, and visual designer based in Portland, Oregon. I partner with marketing and communications teams to develop strategy and messaging and solve alignment issues. Specialties include:

  • Developing brand guidebooks (core messaging, alignment, identity, etc)
  • Discovery conversations and stakeholder interviews with internal and external stakeholders
  • Writing, editing and managing content across channels
  • Creative direction and team leadership
  • Thought leadership and ghostwriting
  • Creative work for both B2B, B2C, and nonprofit clients

I often enter through the door of copywriting or creative services—but quickly uncovered deeper narrative, audience, or alignment issues. What you're seeing here is the visible tip of a much deeper diagnostic process to ensure narrative, brand, and messaging clarity.

ÜMA KLEPPINGER
creative. content. strategy.

I help organizations and brands say what they mean—out loud, on purpose, and in ways their audience can feel. I work on brand messaging, internal language, copywriting, and voice-driven strategy—especially when the story no longer matches the reality or has the impact you seek.
