Creative Writer & Editor

As an experienced creative writer and editor, I am passionate about providing writing, editing, and marketing support for a variety of target audiences. My experience in the publishing industry includes serving as proposal specialist for a data collection corporation, copywriter/copy editor for a sporting goods catalog, associate editor for a window fashions trade magazine, creative writer/graphic designer/project manager for a nutritional network marketing company, and production assistant for the YMCA’s Corporate Marketing Department.

Over the past 11 years, my involvement in the publication industry has allowed me to gain experience and expertise in writing, interviewing, editing, graphic design, social networking, communication, and customer service. My specific areas of expertise include:

• Writing engaging copy for various mediums including magazines, catalogs, newspapers, marketing materials, blogs, and websites.
  
• Interviewing business owners and design personalities for feature articles.
  
• Editing copy for style, grammar, and spelling (extensive knowledge of AP style, Chicago style, and proofreading marks).
  
• Providing graphic design and photo editing support for a variety of marketing materials.
  
• Communicating with publication’s readership, advertisers, and industry experts.
  
• Collaborating with editorial, art, sales, and management departments to produce high-quality materials.
