I help fintech companies, financial brands, founders, and technology businesses turn complex ideas into clear, credible content that builds trust, authority, and engagement.
With more than 20 years of experience in financial markets and postgraduate qualifications in FinTech and Blockchain, I bring genuine subject-matter expertise to every project. I don't just research finance—I have lived it. That means I understand the language, the products, and the audiences I'm writing for.
I specialise in creating content that is technically accurate, easy to understand, and written for real people rather than search engines alone. Whether you need long-form articles, LinkedIn thought leadership, AI-edited content, YouTube scripts, or blockchain and cryptocurrency content, my focus is always the same: producing work that informs, builds credibility, and delivers value.
My services include:
• Financial and fintech articles
• Blockchain and cryptocurrency content
• AI, digital assets and emerging technology content
• LinkedIn ghostwriting and executive thought leadership
• YouTube and educational video scripts
• AI content editing and humanisation
• SEO and GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation) content
• Research-driven reports and white papers
Alongside my client work, I am the author of Soul Trader, a memoir exploring financial markets, entrepreneurship, travel, and personal transformation. Writing my own book strengthened my ability to combine research, storytelling, and clear communication—skills I bring to every client engagement.
Recent projects have included finance content editing, AI content humanisation, cryptocurrency research, blockchain-related projects, and market research for international clients. Every project is approached with professionalism, attention to detail, and a commitment to producing content that clients are proud to publish.
If you're looking for a writer who already understands finance, AI, blockchain, and digital assets—and can explain them with clarity and authority—I'd be delighted to discuss your project.

As a child, I began my journey as a writer. Back then, it was mostly fantasy stories that fed my appetite. As I have grown older, my knowledge of writing has advanced and with it, my hunger. I graduated college with a HND (Higher National Diploma) in Theatre studies. My time in college introduced my into other forms of writing, such as scriptwriting.
Since then, I have wrote several independant projects of my own for stage, as well as scripts for TV and film. My love for fiction writing has remained and over the last number of years, have composed a collection of short stories and novellas. I am currently working on my first novel. For the last 7 years, I have been working as a Stage Technician/Production Assistant for film and theatre. I started off doing freelance work but in the last year, I have been working an inhouse job in the national theatre of Ireland, The Abbey Theatre.
I am here to offer my services to any potential client in the field of proofreading, editing, scriptwriting and ghostwriting. I am a highly organised person, who relishes a task and prides himself on doing a good job. But mostly, I feel my passion and understadning for writing is what will help me to flourish in this area. I eagerly await for any potential contact and look forward to beginning work.
All the best
Phil Hughes.
