I am a financial writer/editor with experience as a reporter for business publications and a writer for financial companies. My experience includes business journalism and investment writing at asset management firms. I can tailor copy for institutional, retail, and wealth markets. I have completed 46 jobs for Upwork clients. As a corporate writer at asset management firms and a leading private bank, I have produced many materials, including fund reports, bylined articles, PowerPoint presentations, client newsletters, web copy, and blog posts. I also edited a 293-page book called Wall Street Back to Basics by Alex Gavrish and recently edited an article for financial company Robinhood. For Upwork clients, I have written several blog posts about personal finance for a financial planner’s website and helped create a newsletter about fixed income for a financial company. I can work with your firm to communicate complex financial concepts to clients and potential clients through thought leadership pieces, web content, white papers, and ghostwritten articles. As a corporate writer at financial firms, I have produced many different types of materials: • Blog posts • Investment commentary • Ghostwritten articles • Articles for newsletters and quarterly magazines • Macroeconomic commentary • PowerPoint presentations • Annual and semiannual fund shareholder reports • Web copy

Over the last 20 years, I have built my career as a writer, editor and leader at media companies around one basic task: Effectively telling stories. That skill has been put into practice in various forms - through interviewing sources and researching facts for stories I was writing, combing through the written words of my employees to help them be better at doing the same, and leading an entire department in the creative direction of the stories we were planning to cover. My specialty is conveying what can sometimes be complicated topics into messages that targeted audiences can understand in a way that is both informative and fun to read. This allows me tell the "story" of an interesting resident of a town, break down complicated laws into layman's terms or help others do the same. I am experienced and proficient in AP Style, and can write and edit for all forms of media - be it in print, a newsletter or a blog - and can take on any topic in any field. I have earned the SuferSEO Content Optimization Certificate, which verifies that I'm well-versed with the important principles of Search Engine Optimization (SEO).

As a content creator, I'm constantly pushing myself to explore new topics, experiment with different formats, and stay on top of emerging trends and best practices. For me, there's nothing more rewarding than seeing my content come to life and have a positive impact on people's lives. I have a natural inclination ( and personal preference) for politics, law, and business, but hey, if you need a blog post about painting poodle toenails or planning a wedding in a treehouse, I can write about that too! My little team and I are always looking for work; the more challenging, the better, so if you're in the market for a content creator or 3D animation for your next project, send me a DM, and let's talk!

All projects are completed ahead of schedule and the quality of work is top-notch." SEO Blog Writer | Ghostwriter | Editor | Pop Culture, Tech & Lifestyle | Fiction & Nonfiction Specialist I'm a writer and editor with fifteen years of experience helping brands find their voice, authors finish their books, and blog posts actually get read. On the writing side, I ghostwrite SEO content for NordVPN, breaking down complex cybersecurity topics for everyday readers. I write pop culture and personality-driven content for Truity, analyzing beloved TV and film characters through the lens of Myers-Briggs. And I've written brand and editorial copy for clients ranging from Salsbury Industries to the luxury perfume brand LARTEDELSENTIRE — which means I can shift tone and register to suit whatever world your brand lives in. On the fiction side, I ghostwrote the second and third books in the young-adult historical romance series THE FLAPPERS, and have self-published two novels of my own—experience that gives me a deep appreciation for research, voice, and brutal deadlines. I've spent fifteen years editing manuscripts for authors preparing to query agents or self-publish, doing track changes and revision letters that help writers get their work to the next level. What you can count on: clean, on-brand copy delivered ahead of schedule with minimal back-and-forth. My clients tend to stick around, and they'll tell you why.
