Hello and welcome to my profile! I am a freelance writer and editor, with most of my experience being in website copy, magazine articles, short stories, books, news stories, in-store marketing and product copy. I have worked at advertising agencies for over five years as both a copywriter and editor, with a lot of my time dedicated to writing and editing product copy for Target, but I'm so thrilled to have the opportunity to grow my own business. I have worked with AP style and Chicago style most extensively, but I have also created and followed specific brand voice guidelines for each client that I've worked with. In my free time, I love to go to movies, read books, write for my own personal projects (not surprising for a writer and editor I suppose), watch reality shows and explore different coffee shops around town. I'm so glad that you found my profile, and I'm excited to be able to help you take on your projects with confidence!
