Content and editing specialist with an adaptable, creative voice.

Short version: I have a knack for creating compelling, relatable, yet informative content that draws people in and leaves a lasting positive impression. Basically, I write copy that makes people happy and inspires them to take action. Long version: Hello! I'm a freelance writer with over 10 years of experience in print and online media, and a non-fiction book published by Penguin Random House. I have written copy and overseen the development of online marketing content for brands of all shapes and sizes, including the one I started myself. Whether writing brand marketing materials, landing pages, newsletters, sales funnels, product descriptions, or blog posts, my writing skills are impeccable and can be adapted in voice and style to suit any industry. I am best known for starting a wedding blog that quickly grew to be recognized as one of the best websites in its industry, with an organically-grown and highly engaged social media following of over 1 million people across many social media networks. The blog turned into a book deal with Penguin Random House, and even a TV special. As the site's owner and editor-in-chief, I oversaw and edited posts from a rotating roster of contributing writers which has given me specialized expertise in proofreading and editing content for tone, flow, and engagement. Running my blog was an amazing experience, but I'm much more of a creative than an entrepreneur, so I made the bittersweet decision to retire the site, which allows me to focus fully on a more diversified writing career. I make an excellent creative partner as well, and my clients often lean on me to advise them in strategizing inventive and unique ways to level up their brands. I like long-term clients, nature, and hot baths. Let's make magic together! My favorite topics to write about are: *Beauty *Buddhism *Business *Child Development *E-commerce *Fashion *Food/Beverage *Health/Fitness *Interior Design *Lifestyle *Parenting *Psychology *Relationships *Self-help *Spirituality *Sustainability *Travel *Weddings *Wellness *Womxn

"Dana works very quickly. She meet the deadlines before they were due. Her work was exactly what we asked for and listened to our feedback when we were off track. She even gave us advice on visual aspects on our website that was not related to her contract. I highly recommend her for her excellent writing skills and look forward to working with her again."
