About Me

Am I a bit new to the world of freelancing? Compared to some, yes. However, I am no less professional, motivated, or 'life' experienced and bring all of this to the table.

 I have been writing content for four years now, the vast majority for Gannet and Grateful Ventures prior to the websites being shut down. I provide freelance services through other sites and have worked with Elite Editing on numerous projects. I have written a large variety of content ranging from articles on food to holidays to marriage communication techniques to how to be more environmentally conscious. I have also ghost-written blog posts for a catering service, tattoo artist, and ski and snowboard fanatic, along with newsletters for private schools. 

I graduated first with a bachelor's in Political Science and an associate's in Journalism, followed by a Multiple Subject Teaching Credential and finishing with a master's in Curriculum and Instruction. 

I was an elementary school teacher for 17 years and will always think of myself as an educator. I bring my passion for teaching to my writing in that I strive to inspire, educate, and sometimes, entertain. I am a forever learner and thrive on writing both on topics I am familiar with and those I am not, as it serves as an opportunity to educate myself as I prepare content.

 Fitness and healthy living have long been a passion of mine and I recently became a certified personal trainer and hope to inspire others to live their best life. 

Along with the writing samples I've included in my profile, my portfolio can be found at https://www.clippings.me/users/lblevins .

I am always eager to discuss projects and get the details to ensure quality content.
