Creative Consulting & Brand Development: I have worked as a freelance creative for over a decade. My work spans brand architecture, commercial production (branded content, commercials, and more), and multi-platform copywriting across industries. In short, I've produced every form of content you can think of! Creative Writing: I have authored books, articles, feature films, and animated series. Voice-overs and Voice Acting: As a trained actor, I have recently started doing voice-overs and voice acting. I do work in Swedish and English (I grew up in Sweden, but went to an English school and then moved overseas and have lived overseas since). I have access to a recording studio. Key Skills Writing: - Copywriting (all brand and marketing collateral, including direct response copy) - Blogs & Articles - Fiction & Non-Fiction Books for Children, Teens, and Adults (writing, developmental editing, and line editing) - Feature Films & Commercials Creative Direction, Planning & Design: - Creative Direction for Branding and Marketing - Design (social media posts, newsletters, brochures, presentations, etc.) - Directing & Producing Plays & Commercials I have worked with tools such as: - Canva (landing pages, brochures, presentations, social posts & videos) - WordPress - Figma - Surfer SEO & Clearscope - ClickUp - Monday - Slack - Asana - Trello - Klaviyo - Keynote (incl. animation) - Google Docs, Sheets & Presentations - Pages & Word - Numbers & Excel - Hootsuite - ChatGPT & Gemini - Sudowrite - Grammarly - Celtx As for my background, I trained as an actor/director at KADA/ASAD and a producer at UCLA Extension, but I have also worked as an executive PA to the CEO of an equity company and as a sales manager for an online art gallery before I became a freelancer. Being a freelancer has allowed me to combine my love of storytelling and entertainment with my love of innovative businesses. I just wrapped a one-year contract as the head of brand and content for a trading platform, where I built the brand from scratch and did all the copy for the website, emails, and social posts, plus shot commercials and branded content. I also helped direct two designers, one of whom is now taking over the design department. Throughout my freelance career, I've focused on writing, but with a heavy dose of digital marketing and branding. My passion is helping people communicate their unique story/brand, as well as playing around with innovative marketing and branding ideas. DRC might drive sales, but brand drives loyalty. I further have experience with long-form content, having written blogs and articles, as well as non-fiction and fiction books for clients. I've also done a fair amount of developmental editing. This side of my work allows me to truly indulge in my love of good stories! Communication is what I do best—from communicating brands to communicating stories that deserve to be heard, whether because they’re funny, outrageous, or will simply put a smile on your face. I have many long-term clients and enjoy building client relationships that last and evolve over the years. I have listed myself as an agency here simply so that I am able to collaborate with other freelancers as and when needed, though unless you need other skills than mine, you work with me and me alone.

I am a passionate and versatile creative professional with expertise in scriptwriting, storytelling, content creation, and digital learning. Since 2016, I’ve been shaping compelling narratives that resonate with audiences, with several of my scripts/videos reaching over 1,000,000 views. Whether crafting engaging YouTube content, developing eLearning materials, or simplifying complex topics, I pride myself on turning ideas into impactful, approachable content. - Creative Scriptwriter - Technical Scriptwriter - Content & Copywriter - Copy Editor With over nine years of experience, I’ve written for audiences of all sizes, from scripting for YouTube channels with 12.5M+ subscribers to developing a 20-hour digital marketing eLearning course. My approach combines thorough research, precision, and creativity, ensuring every project connects with its intended audience. I believe writing is both an art and a craft, much like music. We "play" music, and we should "play" with words. This mindset allows me to create text that balances clarity and beauty while capturing the reader's attention. Beyond writing, I co-founded and managed a drama studio, where I took on roles as assistant director, producer, scriptwriter, and script supervisor. I was also a Creative Director for a social media advertising agency. My background also includes years of teaching and private tutoring, which strengthened my ability to communicate effectively with diverse audiences. Let’s collaborate to bring your ideas to life!
