    Hi, I’m Ezra. I’m a freelance writer and communications manager who has written in numerous styles and voices for a variety of clients on subjects ranging from ESG in commercial real estate to elections in a foreign country. I deliver quality work with a positive attitude to boot. This includes newsletter copy, case studies, listicles, standard call-to-action blog posts, evergreen copy for websites, and social media messages (I’m a big fan of LinkedIn). While non-profit communications is my specialty, an oil and gas company is among my current clients. If you hire me, you’ll work with a skilled wordsmith who explains things simply and clearly. I also offer communications management services, including managing paid social media advertising, building standard Squarespace and WordPress websites and managing content on them, managing editorial and design contributors, developing outreach partnerships, and more. These skills and abilities come from my six-years of experience as a non-profit editorial professional working in Washington, D.C., and New York City. I look forward to working with you.

    I've been writing and editing professionally for over 15 years, most recently as the content manager for National Geographic's travel program. I've developed SEO-driven web copy and brand messaging for businesses ranging from tour company startups to industry heavyweights. I've designed dynamic content hubs that drive traffic and foster user engagement. I voice social media channels, including the world's leading travel brand on Instagram, and I feed e-mail newsletter and blog beasts. I've written editorial articles and guidebooks, crafted video scripts, and provided creative direction for award-winning product launches. You can find my work all over National Geographic. I'm responsible for the entirety of the content on three websites: National Geographic Expeditions, National Geographic Unique Lodges of the World, and National Geographic Student Expeditions. I've also penned articles for Nat Geo's editorial travel website, written the majority of the travel ads in National Geographic magazine, and contributed to a number of the organization's travel books. Lately, I've also been helping travel startups launch their websites and develop other marketing collateral. Check out Penwell Safaris and Kantabile Afrika for examples of websites that I wrote in their entirety. Whether you're an established hotel or tour company looking to refresh your content, or you're new to the industry and need help establishing your brand messaging and identity, I'd love to add you to my growing network of partners.

Your needs and guidelines are important to me, and I’m determined to deliver recipes that you are thrilled to use.

Every recipe’s written instructions are crucial as well. They must be clear and concise, while addressing the most common questions, so that anyone can feel confident preparing the recipe. For any recipe, I’m happy to provide blog posts, recipe walk-throughs, or food photography. I’m excited to work with you! Please reach out with any questions.
