I have more than 30 years of experience in both an editorial capacity and in various office environments and would make a good candidate for your position. These jobs have been as varied as media (newspapers, magazines, and Internet), search engine marketing (Microsoft and Google), and construction. These positions have required me to be very detail-oriented and to manage multiple tasks simultaneously. My current specialties include editing for products (including descriptions and reviews), content related to small businesses of all types, including real estate, insurance, accounting, and banking, health and fitness, and niche businesses and startups. My clients in this area have included notable companies like Fit Small Business, Forbes Advisor, Forbes Global Properties, Fortune Recommends, Centerfield, Digital.com, Homefield Health, eZdia, Amazon and Amazon Web Services, eBay, Walmart, and many others. Additionally, I also have a culinary arts degree, have worked as a chef, and copy edited and proofread several cookbooks and diet-related books. From my newspaper days, I have a great deal of experience related to sports content of all types - both team and individual. I also have extensive multimedia experience and even publish a music-related blog on a daily basis.

Greetings, my name is Carly. I am a writer and a content creator with a passion for creativity. In additions to my work as a freelancer, I am currently working as an MLB beat and breaking news writer for both Yardbarker and Last Word on Sports. While most of my recent work has been in sports journalism, I have plenty of experience writing about different topics and genres. When you hire me, not only are you hiring a skilled and experienced writer, but you are also hiring someone well versed in social media marketing and search engine optimization. While I would not consider myself an "influencer" I have amassed a social media following well over 30,000 followers with views and engagements north of 1 million. I also have experience scripting and managing social media ad campaigns to maximize desired results while staying within budget. To be a successful writer and a content creator, you need to have a vast knowledge of search engine optimization practices and how to properly execute them. I have spent years studying and implementing different optimization strategies in my work which we allowed my articles to consistently rank on the coveted first page of Google and Bing search results. Thank you for your consideration and I look forward to the opportunity to work with you!

I am a passionate, driven, and versatile early-career journalist with experience in writing, data journalism, interviewing, fact-checking, and copyediting. I spent my previous summer immersed in an internship at Vulture where I built my skill set in nearly every aspect. I engrossed myself in the opportunity, spending my summer copyediting, assisting with the digital production of pieces, learning how to write headlines, practicing optimizing SEO, fact-checking games and articles, cleaning transcripts, and engaging in extensive research whenever needed. I also have the ability to engage in both editorial and data journalism, having spent the past year utilizing R Studio to clean and analyze over 3 million entries of publicly available data regarding defendants in Harris County, running and interpreting regression, producing data visualizations, and communicating my findings through policy briefs, papers, and presentations. I have also produced several articles for The Rice Thresher, the university’s campus newspaper, writing with urgency under quick turnaround times, sometimes as little as 3 hours. Additionally, I have written for the Rice Journal of Public Policy, where I pitched my own stories, writing with a more academic, analytical tilt. In this position, I explained present issues faced by our nation and corresponding possible solutions, curating my language to appeal to my audience.
