Vanessa Novissimo Wright

Creativity. Community. Connection.

Hi there! I'm Vanessa.

As a word-lover, lifelong writer, and communications strategist, I'm stepping into my next stage of life with creativity, energy, and joy.

With nearly 30 years of experience working with technology companies, educational brands, and coaching professionals, I specialize in building authentic brands and vibrant communities through strategic storytelling.

I thrive on creating meaningful connections, whether I'm developing brand narratives, crafting content that resonates, or helping organizations find their true voice.

I blend strategic thinking with creativity and connection to develop communication strategies that matter.

Vanessa & Her Speak-N-Spell

Words are my love language

I’ve been writing and creating since I knew I had hands.

My mom saved nearly all of my work. I have them in giant plastic containers in my closet. Yes, even in my 1983 diary. I wrote about my love, Ricky Schroeder, my big feelings, and my record collection.

As a GenX kid, I wore out my Speak-N-Spell.

Telling stories, creating community, and using words to build connection are what drive me, both creatively and energetically.

Oh, and I love a personality assessment.

  • Enneagram 2, The Helper

  • 4/6 Splenic Manifestor, Human Design

  • ENFJ, Myers-Briggs Type Indicator

  • Arranger, Developer, Empathy, Input, Maximizer, Clifton StrengthsFinder

I'm a helper at heart who genuinely loves seeing people succeed. Leaning into my intuition comes naturally when initiating change and building connections.

Bringing people together, helping them grow, and making everything work better comes naturally.

Whether helping you and your business move from chaos into clarity, developing potential in others, or maximizing whatever we're working on together, the goal is always meaningful progress for everyone involved.

Kind words from awesome people

“Vanessa was an essential member of my recent book launch team. She brought organization, creativity, and accountability to the project. Not only was she able to put together a thorough marketing plan, but she created copy that stayed true to my brand and voice, something that was very important to me. Her project management and communication skills were top-notch and provided all key milestones on time, exceeding expectations. Highly recommend!”  

— Sarah Lascano, RayZen Energy

"I had the pleasure of working with Vanessa at Big Life Journal in two different roles, as a writer and masterclass developer. She was an incredible support in both. Vanessa is not only super responsive and organized, but also a clear and thoughtful communicator. As an editor, she has a keen eye for detail and consistently helped me strengthen my work while maintaining my voice. She made every project run more smoothly, and I always felt like I was in skillful, caring hands."

Rebecca Louick, Parenting Writer, Children’s Book Author

“I’ve worked with Vanessa for over seven years on a wide range of projects, and her creativity, strong writing, and attention to detail always stand out. She’s not just a colleague but also a trusted friend, and I’ve learned so much from her, especially how to approach work and well-being with intention and care.

With a blend of strategy and passion, she has a gift for creating work that truly connects, always bringing value and insight to the team.”

-Kate Kolesar, Senior Creative Producer

I'm always excited to collaborate on projects that build authentic connections and create real impact.

Creativity. Community. Connection.
