Professional Experience

I create great copy: Whether it's travel, healthcare, sports, real estate, home and garden, gaming or personal profiles, I deliver. I don't miss deadlines: Editors have turned to me needing projects back in fewer than 4 hours. Give me a deadline, and I'll beat it. I've got an editor's eye and a reporter's ear: I'll work with you to craft the best possible narrative for your publication. Let's talk. Visit www.CaraLaBrie.com to view my portfolio, and don't hesitate to contact me should you require more information.
