    I am a business ghost-writer and author content that never has my name on it. I am a skilled WordPress front end developer, content creator, SEO specialist, thorough researcher, and an ideas kind of person. You give me your draft, and I'll show you my vision of what you're trying to say. My articles include graphics, sources, SEO keywords, and grammar/spelling/readability checks by default. My background is course work, with a history in industrial psychology at Unisa, sales at The Sales Counsel, and NGO work in poverty, food insecurity and homelessness for various not-for-profit organisations and business units, most notable of which are the SA Reserve Bank SADC division, the European Union CWCI division, the Southern Africa Trust, and the Nicole Noordien Foundation, where I worked closely on funding proposals with Nicole Noordien de Klerk. More recently, I have focused on the kind of projects that bring me joy. If I've applied to one of your projects, you can be sure I will complete it with the same passion and joy I found it with. Born in the 1970s, I am a Gen X baby and have been working on computers for 30 years. System thinking comes naturally to me, and the user experience is one I identify closely with. I have been browsing, researching, writing, designing, and developing websites and their content for over a decade. I create SEO-rich content and page elements that are easy to read, easy to navigate, and easy to shop. I'm visually-driven, and enjoy using infographics, models, and charts that create interactive reading experiences. I use Canva to design, and am pretty good at it. I'm able to think on my feet, meet every deadline, and keep my word on delivery. My content is engaging, to the point and relevant. I take pride in my work and output. I am comfortable with ChatGPT, Articly.ai, Playground.ai, and Invideo. I adapt quite quickly to new software, apps, or themes. I am able to work in Elementor or other frame-based environments... almost as well as I do in Classic or Gutenberg-based themes. Whether RankMath or Yoast, Notion or Docs, Pexels or Jumpstory, Canva or Paint, Convertkit or a LinkedIn newsletter... I adjust to my environment and deliver.

    I've worked as a full-time freelance writer and editor for the past five years, primarily focusing on SEO-optimized web content. I've covered a diverse range of topics, including global economics, cannabis, digital marketing, health, AI, and psychedelics. I also recently ghostwrote my first e-book on inner child healing, psychology, and cognitive behavioral therapy. It has so far garnered a 4.9-star rating with 5-star Amazon reviews like: "I enjoyed the layout and the activities that encourage healing and release. I also enjoyed that it's not just a "workbook", but gives background and explanations, and really helps you understand the source of trauma. An excellent resource!" and "This book is a great book for those who are just begining their healing or are well into their journey of healing their inner child. I am a Childhood trauma Recovery coach and I myself have experienced childhood trauma. This book was like a breath of fresh air for me and I will share it with my clients and encourage them to read it. Great read" My expertise lies in my adaptability and love for research, where I've: - Ghostwritten tax law guides and global business articles for the international legal website, Mondaq.com, contributing to the Author's 'Top 20%' contributor on the platform. Here's what the client has said: "Roscha wrote some of our best articles. Several of them ended up trending worldwide. It’s been pleasure working with her and a little bit of a holiday every time I received a new article on a challenging/niche or not-so-easy to handle topic. She’s a total pro!" - Ghostwritten e-books/ case studies on cybersecurity, particularly email security. Here's what the client has said: "*Roscha's attention to detail and work ethic helped us eliminate boilerplate content* We've been colleagues since 2020, working for the same content agency, where we had a peer-to-peer editing system. Reading Roscha's articles was a true delight. Her meticulous research, precise word choice, and personality bring to life any content she touches. Might seem like magic, but it's solid skill. In 2021, I changed jobs and was tasked with building a content team. Sure enough, Roscha was my editor of choice. Hiring her took off a ton of pressure – I could rely on her skills and ability to communicate any critique in a subtle and educational way. In 2022, we had to cut most of the team but continued working with Roscha. The ebooks she wrote for the company drive conversions to this day." - Ghostwritten an in-depth 70,000 word e-book on natural language processing, semantic SEO, and Google patents. Here's what the client has said: "I highly recommend Roscha as an exceptional content writer who has worked with me for over 4 years. In that time, Roscha has consistently produced top-quality written content across a wide variety of industries and topics. What sets Roscha apart is her keen research skills and attention to detail. Before putting pen to paper, she digs deep to understand the subject matter and ensure factual accuracy. This dedication to getting the facts right results in content that is insightful, well-informed, and engaging. Roscha also has a real talent for taking complex topics and making them easy for readers to digest. She finds ways to present information clearly without over-simplifying concepts. This ability to educate while keeping readers interested is invaluable. Just as important as Roscha's writing expertise is her collaborative spirit. She welcomes feedback and revisions, working as a true partner to make sure content goals are fully achieved. I often receive direct praise from clients about Roscha’s work. They are impressed by her subject matter competence and appreciate how she brings their industry to life in a way that resonates. Within our organisation, Roscha is looked to as a gold standard for impactful content creation. Roscha recently ghostwrote an article for the highly trafficked site Mondaq that became their most-read article for a period of time. This demonstrates her ability to produce standout content, even for mass audiences. I cannot recommend Roscha highly enough. Any team would be lucky to have someone of her calibre, expertise, professionalism and true passion for the written word. She will consistently create content that educates, engages, persuades and delivers results." As a rabid researcher and a painful perfectionist, I bring my best to every writing task. I’m talking dogged determination, an insatiable appetite for learning, and a creative streak that conveys connection through insightful and authoritative content. In my free time, I enjoy learning about the freakish nature of reality - be it through psychology, quantum physics, philosophy, art, or self-realization.

    I completed my Post-Graduate Certificate in Education in 2013 and I have also completed my Master's degree in International Relations. My Bachelor’s degree majors were Psychology and International Relations and I have been a tutor for undergraduate students. My background in research and writing has provided me with superior writing and proof-reading skills. I've also written for an entertainment website, so I have some experience in writing and blogging. I have worked as a freelance researcher, and I'm currently a full-time teacher at a private school with 6+ years of experience in education. As a teacher, I love using technology, especially since the switch to online teaching during the lockdown so I'm comfortable with a range of software and applications. As a teacher, I am always working with deadlines and I'm happy to say that I've rarely, if ever, missed one.
