Hello! I have eight years of experience as a freelance writer. I'm well-versed in up-to-date SEO practices, educational blog writing, and creative essays.
By day, I am a homesteader in the remote mountains of northwestern Montana and a mother to two wild toddlers. I write about real estate, homesteading, finance, investments, small businesses, eco-friendly living, respectful parenting, and outdoor recreation in the evenings.
I spend most of my free time cooking from scratch, hiking, kayaking, trail riding, fishing, camping, and more.
I write about what I know and do daily, combining my experience with modern research and scientific studies. All of my research and studies come from credible, authoritative sources.
I also have four years of experience as an editor and proofreader. I know how to do high-performing keyword research and article outline creation. I'm proficient in ClearScope, SurferSEO, SEMRush, Ahrefs, Moz, Google Search Console, KWFinder, and LowFruits.io.
In addition to writing and editing, I have experience managing a team of ~20 writers. During my time as a manager, I researched SEO keywords, created topics for her writers' articles, ran a strict editorial calendar, managed my writers effectively (learned and accommodated each writer's personalities and needs), proofread, edited, and fact-checked their work, and published all articles to corporate websites.

I write about five articles a week for Boatsetter's blog. These articles help boaters plan their next vacation, stay up to date on safety practices, boat etiquette, and more. I link these articles internally to others on their site, and all of my external links direct readers to local businesses plus authoritative sites and studies.

I write ten to fifteen weekly articles for The Happy Chicken Coop blog. These articles are a combination of my own experiences as a homesteader plus scientifically backed research to help chicken keepers, hobby farmers, farmsteaders, and homesteaders get the most out of their time and land. These articles typically rank on the first page of SERPs within a week for their keyword, and readers get a lot of information and education from these pieces.
