Not a poet, but when it comes to sports, business/investing, entertainment and pop culture, I know it! I possess six years of award-winning experience writing professionally in these areas as a freelance writer, reporter, and editor. I write articles and can be YourDude for YouTube scriptwriting as well! When not strengthening my writing by producing articles or mind via a good book, I enjoy lifting weights, lifting poles to catch fish, lifting spirits with a good joke/comedy and following professional sports.

I excel at telling stories and dissecting complicated topics, making them easy to comprehend through compelling narrative. I have honed my feature writing and interviewing skills through a career as a journalist and in higher education. For 27 years, I served as editor of Illinois State University's alumni magazine and the primary writer for campus. My experiences range from chronicling a person's journey to explaining research, drafting strategic plans and creating capital campaign materials. I have authored two books--one for children and the other a 100-year historical review of a nursing college. Editing and proofreading are two additional strengths, as I have aided in removing gremlins from short documents while also perfecting grants and polishing corporate asks. I am a national award-winning writer who manages projects from start to completion on deadline. As an author coach for a publishing house, I have helped myriad authors take their book from concept to publication. I excel in helping authors organize their thoughts, overcome writer's block, tighten and polish their narrative, and remain motivated to reach their goal. I am also a ghostwriter for authors who cannot finish their manuscript, interviewing them extensively and writing their story. If you are seeking someone who can write tightly and communicate effectively, I can help! Thank you for your consideration. I hope to hear from you!

I love writing, but I hate writing about myself. If you’ve been recruiting on LinkedIn all day, you might also hate reading. So here’s five quick facts (you’re welcome) about me and my work: 1) I never planned to be a writer. In fact, I wanted to be a veterinarian. After that, I wanted to be a teacher. In college, I changed my majors to everything from marine biology, to education, to public health. In my free time, I’ve milked goats with farmers in San Diego. I’ve taught English to Russians in Spain. I’ve even practiced my Arabic with immigrants right here in Chicago. My life path has been anything but linear, but it’s granted me a diverse content knowledge, and most of all, the ability to view the world through many different lenses. As a writer, that means I can customize my tone and content for virtually any audience. 2) I’m pretty trendy—or at least my content is. I can track emerging trends, identify content opportunities, and create high-engagement web copy in my sleep. At 150sec, my feature articles have consistently ranked in the top three most viewed per month. 3) I love traveling, and I love making connections. I’ve lived and worked around the world, and I maintain a diverse global network of startups, leaders, and experts from Europe, Latin America, Asia, and beyond. I also have strong connections in Colorado, California, Chicago, and Canada, making my inbox a treasure trove of quotable sources. 4) I’m a social media guru. Using my following, I Am Human's first blog post reached over 2,000 people across 36 countries and 6 continents in its first month (I’ve yet to break into the Antarctic penguin demographic, unfortunately). How do I do it? By utilizing deliberate social media management, SEO tactics, and data analytics to meet client branding goals. 5) Most of all, I’m passionate about my content. In many ways, the pandemic has tangled our sense of community and purpose, making storytelling and content creation more important than ever. That’s me! If you’ve made it this far, I encourage you to take a look at my resume and portfolio. You may also contact me at jakeschellcontent@gmail.com.

You want to engage readers while sharing value-added content. I do that. I bring a spirit of passion, adventure, and treasure-hunting to my work. You need someone with experience, someone who enjoys research and makes it accessible, someone who can weave storytelling with facts. You want a story interviewing live subjects, digging deep into the issues that affect real people. In writing more than seventy-five articles for a range of publications, the story behind the story is paramount. I can uncover it for you. You want someone with background knowledge and familiarity with industry terminology. I am a certified Health Coach and Personal Trainer, with additional training in Functional Medicine, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Nutrition, Mind-Body Medicine, Herbs, Aromatherapy, and Peak Performance . Over the past twenty years, I have used my background in biology and natural medicine to produce web content for health and wellness sites, such as Welloria, Alternative Health Guide, and MerckMedCo., and feature-length articles for health care trade journals, such as Professional Medical Assistant and Laboratory Medicine. My work with local teens has been featured in Bright Promise and Berwyn Magazine. You need someone who can take your notes, your recordings, and transform them into a book. I have written attention-getting book proposals, heart-wrenching memoirs, and friendly self-help books. Your book will have the right flavor for your audience, with your voice! To round out my diverse experience, I have written product reviews for a range of clients such as Great Indoors and Educational Toy Guide. In addition, my experience includes patient newsletter copy for local hospitals, newsletter copy for restaurant loyalty customers, and fact-checking for consumer product guides. My blog posts have appeared in IntellectualCapital, Time4Computers, InterestLedLearning, Homeschooling with Heart and others. My most popular social media posts have been devotional material and surprising education insights. You need well-written, compelling copy that keeps readers coming back. I deliver cutting-edge research and story-driven content. I am flexible to your needs and can't wait to get started on your next project!
