As MSPC senior content strategist, Claire Davidson develops content for large national and local brands, helping them connect with their audience in a more authentic way. As a seasoned editor, she’s worked within both the print and digital realms, writing about everything from beauty products and bundt cakes to cybersecurity and exercise science.
In today’s edition of 5 Questions we get to learn more about Claire:
Describe your perfect day.
I’d start with coffee and a good book in bed, go on an outdoor adventure, eat as many pastries as possible and laugh with people I love.
Who/what inspires you and your work?
Gilda Radner is an all-time inspiration for life, and my closest female friendships also inspire me daily. I’m lucky to know so many strong women who are resilient, funny and compassionate. I think those traits benefit any environment, whether it’s at work or in your personal life.
What has been your favorite MSPC project and why?
Whenever I can be involved with the beginning stages of a project, I get excited. The initial phase of a project where we tap into an audience’s specific wants and needs—and figure out how to speak to them—is what I get excited about.
Favorite quote/saying … something of that nature.
“And now that you don’t have to be perfect, you can be good.” — John Steinbeck, East of Eden
What’s a cause that you are passionate about and why?
Reforming the prison system and helping end the cycle of generational poverty. I also think programs that teach meditation or emotional self-regulation to children at a young age deserve our support. Societal improvement starts with individual improvement, but most of us aren’t taught how to self-regulate or calm our minds. The earlier that we can learn these skills, the more they can have a ripple effect on our communities and larger issues.
