About

πŸ“© Email: itsmorganyoung@gmail.com | πŸ“Έ Instagram: @itsmorganashleigh [Content Disclaimer: All opinions, insights, and perspectives given and portrayed through my content are my own and are not reflective of the company I work for nor the brands I collaborate with.] πŸ‘‹ Hi there! My name is Morgan and I'm a content creator, creative marketer, and storyteller with a background in Computer Science & Technology. πŸ‘©πŸ»β€πŸ’» I started creating content on LinkedIn at 18 years old, documenting the adventures and day-to-day of a freshman who'd landed her dream internship in the middle of a pandemic. Honestly, I started posting as a way of "journaling in public." I had 0 intention of becoming a content creator. But one of the best lessons I've learned as a young adult is to "follow momentum," so I leaned into marketing, social media, and creative storytelling. πŸ‘€ Now, 4 1/2 years after that fortuitous 1st LinkedIn post, I am the founder of Hyphenate Media, a media company and studio that ~ 🌟 Builds media at the intersection of technology, higher education, and career/professional development (current media includes LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, beehiiv, and LinkedIn Learning; 32M+ views, 119K+ followers across platforms) 🌟 Partners with leading brands and organizations to create cross-platform campaigns that have reached millions of professionals across LinkedIn and Instagram (past clients include LinkedIn, Canva, Miro, TED Conferences, Notion, Lenovo + more) 🌟 Provides consulting and advising services to leading brands and organizations on personal branding, marketing communications, and PR strategy πŸ›  Upcoming Partnership & Collaborative Opportunities: πŸš€ I will be attending SXSW (South by Southwest) 2026 as a π™Žπ™₯π™šπ™–π™ π™šπ™§ (hosting the "Intergenerational Workplace Culture Meetup) from March 11-19. 𝗒𝗽𝗲𝗻 π˜π—Ό: sponsored/branded content, social channel takeovers, social media correspondence, event social media coverage, co-branded event activations, event hosting & emceeing, and IRL-to-digital brand extensions πŸš€ I will be attending Forbes 30 under 30 Summit 2026 on a non-exclusive brand trip (i.e. I'm allowed to work with other brands on the trip!) from April 19-22. 𝗒𝗽𝗲𝗻 π˜π—Ό: sponsored/branded content, social channel takeovers, social media correspondence & co-branded event activations
