About
I'm a creative and marketing copywriter, editor, and proofreader with a passion for storytelling and writing compelling content -- from the enticing and entertaining to the informative and educational. I'm a versatile writer proficient in a variety of writing styles and have gained the bulk of my experience working for some of the top companies in the Dallas area.
I'm dedicated to producing content that's fit for purpose and utilizing my creativity, curiosity, concepting abilities, discipline, enthusiasm, motivation, attention to detail, adaptability, idea development and research and organizational skills toward this end. In a solo capacity or in a team setting, making a positive contribution through excellent work is my utmost goal.
I'm excited about the opportunity to freelance for your project and/or join your organization to share my knowledge and skills -- and to get the job done right. I look forward to meeting with you soon to learn more about your project/company and to discuss any new opportunities for which you are seeking top quality, professional services. I'm the right person for the job; contact me and let's get started. -
