Professional Experience

Picture
Copywriting. 
  • I am experienced in writing website copy and direct mail in health, financial, and retail industries
  • My marketing knowledge has been "learned on the job," meaning that my sales tactics are not sales-y
  • Deadlines and excellent communication are important to me

Articles and Ghostwriting:
  • I was previously the Managing Editor for a self-help/eating disorder education publisher
  • I have collaborated on articles and blogs with therapists and psychologists. If I wasn't a writer, I probably would have studied psychology. I like observing people and learning what motivates them.
  • Breaking down complex subjects and writing for a wide audience comes easily to me. This includes copy for young people and the average consumer. If it makes sense to me, it is crystal clear for EVERYONE.
  • Topics where I shine:
                 Health and wellness       
                Consumer information
                Business and financial topics
                Topics for women and teens
                Foot and ankle health
                Dating and relationships
                Self-help and personal growth
                The writing profession
                The paranormal (not kidding!)


Interviewing:
  • I have interviewed physicians, psychologists, and business owners
  • Physician interviews have been used to create articles and online marketing materials
  • Business interviews have created unique customer testimonials for clients
  • My phone interviews include scheduling with the client, writing, and follow up
