Freelance Experience

Since Spring 2022, I have written over 350 articles for more than 10 different clients. I have covered a range of different topics and niches, which I will list in order of most-experienced to least:

| Tech News (covering industry news topics like Computing, Apple, and ChatGPT)

| Tech Education (covering coding bootcamps and online courses, plus advice and guides for changing careers)

| Fintech (covering advice and guides for small business owners and those wishing to start a small business)

| Entertainment (covering news and knowledge about popular anime and video games)

| Home & Cleaning (covering common household problems, buying guides and cleaning guides)

| Lifestyle (covering arts & crafts guides, product reviews, holiday and event ideas, etc)

| How-To Guides (covering common People Also Ask questions about consumer products)

| Finance (covering tax guides and explanations)

| Business and Workplace (covering guides on how to improve business practices)

I have experience working with detailed briefs and without, using in-depth research to inform my content in both cases. I work with a range of SEO graders such as Frase and WordPress and readability checkers such as Hemingway to keep my work SEO friendly and highly readable.

I pride myself on producing simple yet engaging copy that’s pleasant to read and effortless to understand. In research, I make it a point to fully understand the topic at hand before writing about it — this may take time, but it means each subject I write about once becomes a subject I can write about again easily. I have authored top-performing articles for clients, some of which I update monthly to maintain performance metrics.

When you work with me, you’ll come away with high-performing articles that users can find, read and understand easily.

I’m currently studying to become a Technical Writer — I read a few books, learned about the history of computers and how they work, and now I’m taking the Harvard CS50 Computer Science course. Watch this space for technical documentation samples in the near future, and check out my progress in the course here.
