My decade working as a content writer, editor, and strategist has fostered a strong skill set that includes assisting clients in identifying their unique brand voice (the one that is sure to speak to their target audience) and crafting web content that reflects it.
Digital content needs to (1) draw in and retain prospective clients or customers, solidifying your revenue stream, and (2) provide those clients with useful, relatable information, solidifying your expertise and authenticity in your industry. Today, I work predominantly as a copy and stylistic editor, taking written projects from brain dump or almost done and ensuring the final project is polished and ready to achieve the client’s goals. I also provide site audits and consulting services to organizations hoping to level up their existing websites to attract and retain more—and more relevant—visitors. I accept exciting short- and long-form writing projects as well, throughout which I work collaboratively with the client to create the perfect product for publishing across a wide range of mediums.
