In February 2018, I launched my own freelance writing and editing business, producing content for a variety of businesses and organizations.
I worked directly with clients, as well as through other copywriting agencies, including Blank Slate Content, Grammatik, and Pressboard Media.
Here is a selection of some of my freelance work:
