nDash.com is a content creation platform that provides brands and agencies with access to the world's top freelance writers.
I am a digital content specialist focused on strategy and structure to execute successful marketing campaigns that touch consumers through their journey.
I spent 20+ years as a journalist and am now looking to tell stories about some of my passions: travel, history, and sports. While that may be a little bit about me, I'm happy to take on any and all projects.
Since I did spend more than two decades as a journalist some of my specialties include press releases, blog writing, ghostwriting, copywriting, grant writing, and letter writer.
I also have a passion for research and data-driven projects.
