I’m a writer, researcher and editor that can operate in a variety of situations, stylistically. • General content for websites, magazines and other publications. Very comfortable with writing about travel, technology, data, science, politics, one-on-one interviews, beauty trends, op-eds and more. • Years of database building experience, plus CompTia A+ certified, CySA+ pending. Familiar with the principles and architecture of technology and able to communicate those principles to a non-tech audience in a way they can easily connect with. • Business writing, newsletters, meeting notes, slides, and conference materials (like informational one-sheets). • Skilled editor that will maintain YOUR voice while also ensuring content communicates clearly and effectively. Whether you’re writing a letter to business constituents or a whole book, matching a person’s “tone” is a priority akin to grammatical integrity, in my opinion.

I love writing because I love to learn. I am a VA for both financial publishing and romance. As a financial writer, I've worked at "Institutional Investor," NYT assets (including the role of site manager-editor-writer for a financial services website), and more. I've created website content for institutional and retail markets, published articles on popular finance sites, and ghostwritten content for many financial authors. Because I've enjoyed the wild ride of cryptocurrencies since 2013, I've written books and articles about bitcoin and others. I was a contributor at CCN. As a creative ghostwriter, I've produced YA fiction, romance, and (in progress) a puzzle about the romantic solution to an ancient childe riddle!

💼 Currently available for virtual assistance, automation support, and content workflow optimization. 💼 I specialize in cleaning up cluttered processes—whether it’s organizing metadata, scripting thumbnail and cropping automation, or refining multi-platform descriptions. I build systems behind the scenes that help teams run smoother, scale faster, and stay sharp. 🗣️ I also offer voiceover services—recorded with a studio-grade NIC mic for clear, professional delivery. Whether you need a calm narration for an explainer video, a bold commercial read, or a warm podcast intro, I produce fast, formatted audio built for plug-and-play use. Demos available on request. My background blends technical fluency (think emulator tuning, AI-assisted descriptions, OCR frame extraction) with editorial insight for platforms like TikTok, Pinterest, Instagram, Threads, and YouTube. I’ve managed affiliate funnels, structured descriptions for over 270 DFY videos, and used tools like Buffer to build strategic schedules that actually convert. I’m meticulous with Excel and Word—reformatting, tracking, and cleaning with zero fluff. I troubleshoot login issues, configure LDPlayer environments, and make time-wasting tasks efficient and repeatable. What drives me? Quiet precision, creative adaptability, and a mindset shaped by growing up in a family business that demanded reliability from day one. I’m always learning new platforms, solving behind-the-scenes bottlenecks, and crafting workflows clients didn’t know they needed—but won’t want to work without. 🚀 If you’re scaling and need structure, let’s make your systems sing. As a proud member of the LGBT+ community, a woman of color, and someone living with a disability, I bring resilience, empathy, and a unique lens to everything I create. My lived experience fuels my commitment to precision, inclusivity, and systems that make space for everyone. I believe in working smarter, not louder—and building with intention.
