Professional Experience
As a freelance writer, I have covered business, technology, finance, beauty, travel, and lifestyles for multiple web and print publications. My tone is very flexible, and I can adapt to the voice of nearly any publication. Additionally, my experience in PR and marketing has helped me develop a professional voice that lends itself to case studies, white papers, reputation management, and social media. The research and editing skills I honed early in my career have served me well in all my professional endeavors, and I maintain my memberships with AP and Chicago style manuals. I have a knack for understanding complicated subjects and explaining them in simple ways for a general audience. On occasion, I also moderate both sponsored and editorial webinars.
