    Listen, I get it. Honing your brand's writing to reflect your true voice can be a struggle. That’s why I’ve spent the past 4+ years solving this pain point for a medley of satisfied clients. Case in point: "Nelli was... a true professional, extremely personable and really worked to understand what I was looking for out of this project. When a truly gifted writer really does their homework, you get a great outcome." - Tanu "What inspires me about Nellie is her keen interest in doing good work. That alone cannot be replaced by anything, and his enthusiasm and positivity is what makes her a good teammate." - Tara To date, my diverse treasure chest of copywriting and editing experiences includes: - Directing marketing content for a SaaS startup - Writing & editing for two distinct professional photographers - Ghostwriting blogs for a financial planning firm - Composing ad copy for an agency working with TD Bank - Book editing and consulting for a TEDx speaker - Proofreading a promotional video script for a language learning app - Proofreading the blog of a rising cryptocurrency verification service - ... And much more Through it all - the name of the game has been versatility. No matter what the story is, I can write it up. And who am I, you ask? Well... At my core, I’m a writer. Doesn’t matter if it’s a newsletter, blog post, some website copy, or a grocery list; just give me a dark coffee in a dimly lit café corner and I’ll pump it out pronto. Here's what I guarantee you'll receive: - Polished grammar and compelling language. - Content that I probably spent too much time obsessing over - A well-researched approach (I mean, If I can get to understanding crypto verification...) - High-quality results delivered in a timely and organized manner - Easy back-and-forth communication. And maybe even someone with a sense of humor. :) Looking forward to working with you!
