    Nothing matters more to me than relationships. If you're looking for the best quality and service, hiring someone who wants to build that relationship with you is essential to success. Beyond this, finding a freelancer with a true love of writing helps ensure quality content for your website. As a former high school English teacher, I emphasized quality and attention to detail while nurturing my students' creativity. I taught high school students (grades 9-12) for 8 years in the public school system. I now realize my love of writing as a career freelance writer. I launched my writing agency, Phoenix Heart Writing Company, exclusively on Upwork because I believe in the value of the platform to connect great writers with top clients. You can choose to hire me directly for any of your writing needs or hire my trusted writers and/or myself to get a team effort on your project. Through the agency, we offer writing and editing services, a good alternative for those who want quality writing and editing for their content under one roof. I earned a Bachelor's in English, with a minor in Education, from the University of Maryland, College Park. My teaching experience is wide and varied, covering all areas that one can imagine for an English teacher: poetry, short stories, creative writing, academic writing, technical writing, persuasive writing, and especially journalism. I am passionate about analytical and expository writing and a have deep love of rhetoric. A blank page is my canvas, and I am able to craft imaginative, informative, and entertaining material. I regularly engage in ongoing education and skills development in areas that help enhance my ability to serve my clients. Focus areas include copywriting, content writing for the web, WordPress mastery, data visualization, and developing a keen understanding of customer profiles and SEO techniques. I am also what you might call a news junkie. I constantly consume information from numerous sources. I'm also a consumer of your standard "geek culture" niches, including science fiction, anime, and video games. During my time as a freelance writer, I have etched out significant success by focusing solely on relationship-building with my clients. I believe strongly in only taking on jobs or tasks that I believe I can knock out of the park the first time around and to which I can devote the time you deserve to get that excellence. If I apply for a freelancing job with you, know that I am only applying because I believe that I can give you industry-leading quality. My key skills include: SEO content strategy, long-form SEO-optimized content, original copywriting, and AI prompt engineering.
