I speak English, Chinese and Japanese (have been living and working in HK and Kyoto, currently based back in the UK). My work experience includes project management and graphic design for Hong Kong Polytechnic University’s international online book talk series and worked with Poly Auction as a freelance artist.

Hello! I’m Amber, a researcher, writer, and content editor with a background in the arts and cultural heritage. I help organisations, artists, and institutions tell meaningful stories through well-researched content, digital curation, and project coordination. I’ve worked on everything from digitising historical artefacts and building WordPress archives, to co-curating exhibitions and writing content for public engagement. I combine a strong eye for detail with a collaborative, organised approach, and I care deeply about making cultural material discoverable, well-preserved, and beautifully presented.

Whether you're after precise proofreading, engaging content, or compelling copy that elevates your brand, I deliver work that's thoughtful, accurate, and on deadline.

I am a professional copywriter and scriptwriter; experienced in SEO and online marketing. I have a Distinction MA in Creative Writing and have been working as a freelancer for over 15 years. I have a versatile voice that can be friendly and enthusiastic, or informative, academic, or educational. In the nicest possible way, could I ask that you please observe my hourly rate before you send me an invite to your job? I charge by time, not by word - I don't do fixed-rate jobs unless they cover the time required to do the job. I run a small publishing company (WFTS Books) and can create interactive eBooks from given copy or create new copy to a stated research topic. I love researching and translating that research into accessible, digestible content for the web or for print. I have 15 years experience as a teacher (PGCE), so have loads of experience of creating educational resources and interactive web-based content. As a (very rough) guide a 500-word blog piece takes around an hour, but it depends on the research required. Please don't suggest a negotiation unless it matches my hourly rate. And remember, I charge for my time, not per word. Thank you!!
