Welcome to my corner of the internet 👋🏾 I’m glad you’re here.
My name is Aleenah Ansari (she/her), and I’m equal parts storyteller, creative problem solver, and journalist at heart rooted in the stories of people behind products, businesses, and places. By day, I support customer storytelling at Salesforce, where I focus on messaging and story development of web stories and videos. I’m also a freelance writer with 10+ years of experience, and I currently cover travel in the Pacific Northwest and beyond, representation in media, and entrepreneurship for The Seattle Times, Insider, Joysauce, and more.
Career and life highlights include giving a TEDx talk about channeling jealousy as a tool for self-reflection, trekking to Everest Base Camp, running webinars on storytelling and personal branding, writing mural walks and author Q&As for The Seattle Times, and being recognized as a 425 Business 30 under 30 honoree and 2021 ADCOLOR FUTURE.
