Writer in Edmonton, Alberta

Please take a look at my portfolio here: https://....com/ I am a self-motivated and university-educated writer and editor with a passion for language and the power behind our words. I graduated with Distinction, made the Dean's List, and was awarded a scholarship for outstanding academic achievements. With a bachelor's degree in communications and professional writing, I am skilled in most areas of the written word. My primary focus in university was technical writing and editing, but I love all forms of writing. I've worked as the sole writer and editor for a multimillion-dollar software company, as part of a writing and editing team for a multibillion-dollar software company, a web marketing generalist for dozens of medical clinics worldwide, and as a freelancer working on a wide array of exciting projects. These are a sampling of areas where I can flex my creative muscles and make an impact: • research, • web content, • localization, • self-help, • installation, user, and training guides, • API documentation, • brochures, pamphlets, and newsletters, • marketing and promotional material, • internal and external corporate documents, • resumes, • recommendation letters, • Google Business posts, • biographies, • blog posts, • articles, and, • editorials. I am also skilled with SEO, Google Analytics, content management systems, HTML, most style guides, Microsoft Office Suite, Adobe Creative Suite, specialized software programs, and social media. In addition to writing, I am a proficient editor, which includes proofreading, copy editing, and substantive editing. I am incredibly warm, friendly, flexible, and dedicated. It's rare–maybe unheard of!–that a new writing opportunity doesn't excite me. I love to learn, grow, and expand, both personally and professionally. (It should go without saying that making my client/employer happy is my top goal, but I'm saying it anyway.)
