Hi, I'm Jess — a nomadic editor, copywriter, and yoga mentor specializing in wellness, philosophy, spirituality, psychology, and transformational storytelling. I work with authors and businesses to create content that is clear, engaging, and deeply human. My work ranges from developmental and line editing to website copy, educational content, spoken fitness scripts, AI content humanization, and UX feedback. I'm especially drawn to projects that explore psychology, philosophy, health, spirituality, and personal transformation. Whether I'm refining a memoir or reviewing a website, my goal is always the same: preserve the creator's voice while improving clarity, flow, and the overall user experience. Before becoming a full-time editor, I spent 10 years in marketing, working with brands including MLB and Bud Light. That experience taught me how to balance creativity with consistency while building a strong brand voice—skills I now bring to every project. Alongside editing, I've been a yoga mentor for over six years with 16+ years of weight and functional training experience. I create educational wellness content, mentor yoga teachers on sequencing and cueing, and specialize in making complex ideas feel accessible and relatable. Services • Book & Manuscript Editing (Developmental, Line, Copy & Proofreading) • Website Copy Editing & Copywriting • AI Humanization • Educational, Fitness & Wellness Writing • UX Feedback & Beta Testing • Yoga Teacher Mentorship On a personal note, I have lived a nomadic lifestyle for over 2 years. This life path has and continues to provide me a wide perspective of life and of those who walk it. My hours may vary, but my commitment to projects stays consistent. Note that I am currently based in Thailand.

Most ad creative for finance brands gets written by people who've never had to say "past performance doesn't guarantee future results" with a straight face. I have and I was a licensed advisor at Northwestern Mutual and worked at Dow Jones on the marketing side. Now I build Meta ad creative and strategy exclusively for wealth and finance brands: fintechs, advisors, financial educators, and estate/retirement platforms. Newsroom-trained at Dow Jones and Investor's Business Daily. Growth marketing at Trust & Will. Currently marketing director for a retirement education platform and a fee-only fiduciary practice. What I actually do: audit your Meta Ad Library for the angles your market is asking for that your creative ignores, then script and produce the ads to fill the gap: hooks, UGC scripts, AI video, statics and they all written with SEC/FINRA/IAR guidelines in mind. Three honest reasons NOT to hire me: I only work in finance and wealth, so if you sell skincare I'm the wrong call. I test against your existing winner, so if you don't want your control challenged, that'll be awkward. And I'll tell you when an idea won't survive compliance, even if it's yours.
