About Me

I have built my career across copywriting, content operations, journalism, and editorial management, with a strong focus on financial services, fintech, and Web3. My background began in consulting, where I worked with major banks in London, New York, and Boston, giving me direct exposure to corporate environments and financial products.

After several years in consulting, I transitioned into professional copywriting and content work. Since then, I have produced a wide range of content including pitch decks, SEO copy, newsletters, emails, press releases, blogs, whitepapers, interviews, and thought leadership pieces.

I have worked with startups, agencies, and media companies, often coordinating content strategy, managing external writers, and ensuring that deliverables meet editorial and business goals. I am comfortable working across multiple formats and channels, including email marketing, webinars, social media, and livestream support.

My editorial experience includes fact-checking, SEO optimization, proofreading, and maintaining high standards for accuracy and readability. I have also served as a site editor for high-traffic websites, where I reviewed articles, improved structure, and managed small teams of writers.

In more recent roles, I have expanded into AI-assisted workflows, video editing, livestream coordination, and newsletter management. I enjoy combining strong writing skills with operational thinking to help teams communicate clearly and effectively.

I am particularly experienced in financial content, having written extensively on personal finance, investing, credit cards, loans, and related topics. I also have hands-on experience with tools such as HubSpot, WordPress, KIT, Canva, Descript, Slack, ClickUp, and Notion.

Overall, I bring a versatile content skill set, a strong editorial mindset, and a proven ability to support marketing and communications efforts in fast-paced, detail-oriented environments.
