    My work experience includes journalism, corporate communications, editing, and PR communications. These positions have provided me with wide-ranging experience doing the two things I enjoy most: writing and proofreading. Because my work has often been deadline driven, I have proven my ability to maintain accuracy and quality, even when required to work quickly. I am therefore confident that I would prove an asset to any business looking for a high-quality content creator or editor.

    I'm an experienced copywriter with a passion for reading, writing, travel, and food. I started working as a freelance writer back in 2012 when freelancing wasn't very popular and working from home wasn't considered a choice. I love the freedom and flexibility that it brings and wouldn't want to live my life in any other way. While my background is in law, finance, and security, I flourish in creative roles that are centered on my many passions. One of the most important things you should know about me is that I'm incredibly adaptable - I'm just as comfortable writing an academic essay as I am a restaurant review. I prefer working with clients that are looking to establish a long-term relationship with a copywriter. I want to become a part of your team and help you create and publish content for many months and years to come. I also prefer to work with people who are operating a business, website, or have a mission that I agree with and believe in. Get in touch and let's get to work!
