Hire the Best Journalists
in Canada

Hello, and thanks for reviewing my profile. I look forward to hearing about your project! As a career freelance writer, creating fabulous content and well-crafted books is my passion. The written word has always been something especially beautiful to me, from the many intricate fonts to the individuality of each written piece. This love of writing led me to pursue a Journalism and Communications degree program right from high school, and I have been writing ever since. Between writing projects, I have worked as a sailor, commercial diver, and foreman in a Rigging Shop. This career diversity allows me to draw on a wide range of experience for any project. Whether you are seeking long-term assistance or you just require a polish to work already started, your project will be delivered on time and completed to your specific instructions. My home base is Kelowna, B.C., Canada, although I am currently travelling and writing part of the year in Mexico. When not writing, I can be found cycling and exploring. Travels have taken us (so far) to India, Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, Italy, the South Pacific and throughout Central America. We have lived in Canada, Grand Cayman, Australia, and now in Mexico.

I am a millenial storyteller with a decade of experience helping brands and publications use empathy-driven narratives to contribute to their business thriving. Lifestyle journalist turned content marketer and copywriter over the last few years, then stepped into UGC a couple years ago. I've been published thousands of time in travel and lifestyle magazines, content marketing blogs, news stories, digital features, guides, manuals, eBooks, and whitepapers. A real word nerd. For journalism, I have written for Huff Post, Global News, Atlas Obscura, Pop Sugar, Mtl Blog, Explore Mag, Canadian Traveller, Ottawa Business Journal, Arctic Focus, This Mag, Herizons, Shameless Mag, and more. For SEO content and copywriting, I have written for Ownr, Womens Enterprise Orgs of Canada, RVO Health, spas, online schools, tourism departments, real estate agencies, marketing agencies, health clinics, non-profits, and government. For UGC, I have created content for Destination Ontario, Quebec City Tourism, Ford, LaRoche Posay, Trans Canada Trail, Culinary Tourism Alliance, Vichy, Ole Henriksen, as well as home, crafts, skincare, and food brands. I'm high work ethic, high empathy and high strategy. I think holistically and zoom in and out from big picture to fine details quickly and easily. I'm an ideas girl who loves data, and I love a good storycrafting.
