Hi, I'm Melissa. I've been running my business as a freelance writer, editor, and content marketer since October 2017. I'm excited to share some of the lessons I've learned along the way with you!
I'm a creative professional who's slightly obsessed with the written word (I'll happily expound on apostrophes and em dashes if given the chance). I have educational qualifications in copywriting, editing, and proofreading, and my work experience includes content marketing, social media management, journalism, and curriculum development.
As a freelance writer, editor, and content marketer, I love to help people and companies tell their stories in clear, compelling, and creative ways. I tend to focus on the intersection of people and work. You can find my writing on the Greenhouse Blog, the Udemy for Business Blog, and Product Talk—to name just a few!
I love the freedom and flexibility that comes with being a freelancer, but I know it can be a little scary when you're just getting started. My course is designed to give you some practical steps that will help you create connections and build your business on LinkedIn.
