    I have a natural talent for intuiting the needs of the target audiences. This goes beyond what words they are reading at face value. Effective advertising, effective professional writing, and effective story telling all have one thing in common: suspension of disbelief. My profession allows me to utilize this skillset in a scientific environment, however I am looking to grow my writing career whilst helping other achieve their personal, professional, and entrepreneurial goals. I want to translate my ability to gauge connections, influences, and larger pictures to other areas of writing. Please contact me if interested. Thank you for your time and consideration. Best regards, Maia Alberts
