About me
My key strengths lie in writing both long- and short-form creative and technical copy, whether that be aspirational and enticing product descriptions, insightful and inspirational articles or useful buying guides.
I have SEO and CRM experience and am comfortable writing and optimising anything from meta data to blog posts.
My copywriting experience lies predominantly in online retail, homeware and interiors, and food writing, but I am always open to new challenges.
I am keen and quick to learn new skills and use the written word in creative ways to produce copy for companies who need their voices to be heard.
In my spare time I enjoy writing short stories, often as competition entries, and creative non-fiction. I have had two articles published in print for Potluck Zine (https://www.potluckzine.co.uk/) and several articles published online for Dish Cult (https://dishcult.com/).
For examples of my work, please drop me a message and I'll send over a PDF of my writing portfolio.
