About Me

Hi! My name is Hannah and I'm a freelance writer from Pittsburgh, PA. I'm a skilled writer whose passion lies in writing film criticism, but I have experience in academic publishing, communications for a Fortune 500 company (Compass Group), and nonprofit communications. I have written articles for organizations newsletters, created instructional manuals to use procurement systems, written jacket copy for both academic and trade titles, and proofread manuscripts. I consider myself a jack of all trades with an excellent and wide-ranging set of skills and a strong research background that has prepared me to take on any variety of work.
