nDash.com is a content creation platform that provides brands and agencies with access to the world's top freelance writers.
I am an aspiring copywriter, active copy editor, and an ace student at Reed College in Portland, OR. From my time as an undergraduate, I have gained graduate-level reading and writing capabilities. I aim to provide copy text for your business or project that will effortlessly communicate every aspect of your desired tone, company image, personality, and content. I hope to use Ndash to deepen my skillset, make connections, and gain valuable professional experience.
What I bring to the table:
- Copy experience in a web design context where I help clients express their vision and mesh the resulting copy within a total website and brand design package.
- Tech writing is one of my strong suits. I can program basic Python/C and understand the major programming concepts, such as algorithms, classes, memory management, stacks, compilers, etc. I know what good documentation looks like. A special area of interest for me is systems engineering and operating systems technology, and I keep up-to-date with the newest developments in that space.
- I am well-versed in health and wellness topics from my own pursuits and research. I understand how to parse life science academic data and understand the terminology of subjects such as gene sequencing, the endocrine system, calories and metabolism, and the science of sleep. I am also very well familiar with the major health and wellness trends, especially fitness and nutrition.
- I have conducted non-profit outreach, requiring punctuality and a professional writing style. I established and maintained contact with dozens of organizations.
My academic and professional background provides me the necessary technical ability to produce the cleanest possible content for your company. I look forward to working with you!
