Hi there! I am a writer in the Los Angeles area. I'm here to help you take your work to the next level. Whether you need a full blog post or social media post written, or you just want to add some extra humor to your web page, novel, or script, I've got you covered. I work with all kinds of documents, including essays, manuscripts, memos, emails, ad copy, web pages, and more. I'm skilled at providing the kind of humor that is required of the project, whether that's light chuckles for an otherwise dry conference speech, or taking an existing punchline to the next level. I'm always sure to make suggestions that are appropriate to the tone and type of piece it is. I also offer basic notes and proofreading help when needed. I have over 250 five-star reviews for my work on Fiverr, but I'm trying to navigate away from them. I'm looking forward to working with you! Arielle

I'm a comedy writer. With nearly three decades writing character-driven comedy, I specialize in conversational content that sounds like a person wrote it. I write social media scripts, brand voice content, punch-ups for presentations and screenplays, and comedy sketches for tech companies, healthcare professionals, lifestyle brands, and more. I started in Chicago's comedy scene writing and performing at Second City's Donny's Skybox Theater, Lincoln Lodge, and Chicago Comedy Festival, then moved to NYC and continued at The Creek and the Cave and Manhattan Monologue Slam. I'm also the author of a dark comedy novel.

- Did you or your kids watch "That's So Raven?" I was a writer on the show and came up with the iconic title. -Do you like Kathy Griffin? I’ve written for her. - Do you like Monty Python? I’ve written for Eric idle. - Do you like Louis Anderson? You've got the idea. My other writing experience includes stand up, sketch, and improv in New York, and Los Angeles. As a copywriter, I’ve worked for several agencies, writing scripts, ads and social media. So whether it's writing your script, punching it up, giving feedback on it, result-delivering ad copy, jokes for your standup routine, or a roast or toast for that big occasion, I'll bring my expertise and skills to get your job to the next level.
