About Me

Hi I'm Ellen and I am a freelance writer; I find the words so you don't have to." I am passionate about writing engaging, clear and accessible copy that conveys meaning in an impactful and authentic way.

With over a decade of professional experience in communications I've worked with a variety of businesses including some big brands here in the UK. These include; National Grid, Google, Npower and Cadent Gas as well as working with smaller and medium sized businesses across the UK.

Whether it's articles, social media posts, white papers or blog posts that you need I have the experience to write just what you need. I even run my own blog, so I know what works. I have run paid campaigns via social media too.

Building relationships with my clients is one of the most important things when it comes to creating copy and content that hits the spot. And, it's one of the things I enjoy the most. I love working with people to make sure that the end result is exactly what you want and what will benefit your business.

I'm curious about businesses and industries and can adapt quickly from one subject area and client to another.

This means I quickly pick up and understand the tone of voice you need in your for your business. Whether it's blogs, websites, emails or brochures and everything else in between. If there's words involved I can help clients achieve their goals.
