nDash.com is a content creation platform that provides brands and agencies with access to the world's top freelance writers.
I am a copywriter, editor, grant writer, and writing consultant with over 12 years of experience working both as an independent contractor and a salaried employee. I have experience conceptualizing, drafting, editing, and proofreading varying types of documents—ranging from proposals, marketing materials, blog posts, and website copy to children’s poetry books—according to clients' needs. I also provide consultation services regarding the composition of a diverse range of writing projects. Although early on I was employed at larger companies and universities, my focus for the past several years has been freelancing for a company that works with Fortune 500 and other enterprise clients. I have an extensive knowledge of English grammar and familiarity with APA, MLA, and CMS style guides.
