Hi! Thanks for taking a look at my profile. My name is Jessie and I am a writer who specializes in scientific topics, with Microbiology, General Biology/Health, and Public Health being my favorite topics to write about. I've been here on Upwork for almost ten years (!!!) now and am coming back from a hiatus because I am now paying for my wedding! Let's collaborate -- you need something written, and I need to pay for this wedding, so let's chat! One important thing about me is that I am 100% COMPLETELY AI FREE! None of my authoring or edits come from the usage of generative AI. Every word I write is conjured behind these big glasses and typed manually. I believe generative AI has done disastrous and irreversible repercussions onto the freelance writing world, with people paying for AI slop when they expect quality work. I have a BS. in Cell, Molecular, and Infectious Disease Biology (obtained in 2017) from Washington College, where I was a noted research fellow. I currently have been working as a microbiologist since 2019, and I currently work as a Quality Research Microbiologist in a global chemical research company. For my own privacy, I will not be posting the location. I hope you understand! Here on Upwork, I've done so many different projects. I've acted as a Lab Manager, an IRB member, and (the most common) a scientific author. I think my favorite is writing! Here's what I offer and my rates: Copywriting: $0.06 USD per word. This means a 1000-word piece would cost $60 USD. Copyediting: $0.04 USD per word. This means a 1000-word piece with a full editing package would cost $40 USD. For complex research projects, please expect a fee for research efforts. I am flexible with project pricing, so let's chat! This is all subject to change and can be raised or lowered depending on the project. My turnaround time works with your deadline. I'm able to sometimes spit an article out in 7 hours (or way less depending on the project). Let's chat!

I am an academic, scientific, & freelance writer, presentation designer, lecturer, internet and general researcher, public health professional, and veterinarian. I am a One Health proponent specializing in infectious, zoonotic, and vectorborne diseases. Do you need help with research, literature reviews, or scientific writing? What about a journal article or blog-style writing for your website? If so, then I'm your freelancer! I care about you and your company. I value good communication and working together to achieve success. I'll research topics from public health to veterinary medicine and almost any topic in between. Alternatively, let me help you design lectures and presentations on PowerPoint or Google Slides for various audiences. I can do research or use the materials you provide, and I will also do a content evaluation and editing. Finally, do you need a fully developed continuing education course on a mutually agreed subject? I would be happy to help! I have research and clinical veterinary experience, earning my Veterinary Medical Doctorate from the University of Pennsylvania in 2005. Further, I obtained my Master's in Public Health from the University of Florida (2019) and am Certified in Public Health (2020). I am the CEO & Founder of ELTD One Health Consulting, LLC. With over 20+ years of experience in veterinary medicine, disaster preparedness, and response and over four years of public health experience, the skills acquired over time allow me to operate as a scientific and academic writer. But my general writing experience and skills enable me to write on various topics and in multiple formats. In my research and writing and as a freelancer, I will demonstrate excellent communication and organizational skills, proper use of citations, and I guarantee no plagiarism. I use evidence-based science and fact-checking in all writing and have basic SEO knowledge when appropriate. My public health and veterinary interests include One Health (my passion), disaster planning, recovery, and response, infectious illnesses/zoonotic diseases, antibiotic stewardship and resistance. You may also be interested in small animal emergency medicine and critical care, pain treatment, animal behavior, and positive reinforcement training. Don't hesitate to contact me if you are intrigued and want to know more about how I can help you achieve your goals. We can set up a time to chat more about your project and how we can support each other. Thanks, Erica.
