My areas of expertise include short-form and long-form writing, editing, proofreading, and in-depth internet research. I collaborated with many clients through Colorado SEO Pros, the ClearVoice content creation platform, and Upwork. Previously, I worked with clients through the Exclusive Concepts and Webfly agencies. I also served as a ClearVoice managing editor for various clients, in sectors such as healthcare technology, healthcare consulting and advisory services, emergency management software, food distribution, and drug testing, DNA testing, and background screening. As part of a team of ClearVoice writers, I pitched and wrote financial news articles for StocksNews, a stock market news source. I researched and edited over 2,000 AI-generated recipes for Instacart's new recipe mobile app, and optimized AI content for Thumbtack home services. I've been a ghostwriter for many clients (250+) across a wide range of industries, specializing in healthcare and wellness, technology, and education. In addition to writing and copywriting, I offer meticulous editing and proofreading, fact-checking, content ideation, and online research. I was a content manager and editor at BigBad, Inc., optimizing raw content into scannable web copy that would adhere to strict WCAG accessibility guidelines for their healthcare and higher-education clients. I worked within many customized CMS websites and QA'd the newly built sites from a user's perspective. I've worked with Boston-area colleges and universities, including Northeastern University, Harvard University, and the University of Massachusetts Boston, on technical documentation, website reorganization, conference materials, and special projects.
