MEET TIFF: MY WRITER STORY

I’ve spent the last several years developing content strategies, writing marketing campaigns, and creating digital publications from scratch.

about-a-freelance-writer-london-copywriting-creative-strategist-marketing.webp

I started as a writer.

In 4th grade, I won an award in the elementary writing contest, and it was all over after that. I was going to be a writer one way or another.

In college, studying English Lit meant learning how stories work—how tone shapes meaning, how audiences read between the lines, and why certain voices linger long after the last page.

That curiosity eventually led me into marketing, where I discovered that same storytelling instincts that shape creative fiction and non-fiction also shape successful campaigns.

It all comes down to how people read, feel, and make decisions.

So, all this to say, my work lives in that middle space between creative and analytical, where storytelling meets strategy.

HEY, TIFF! I’D LOVE TO…

HOW I WORK

My approach is customized to each client, brand, and project, blending my experience and areas of expertise to achieve the desired outcome. It looks something like this:

Narrative Instinct: What makes people care.

Strategic Thinking: What makes content work (data and analytics).

Editorial Curiosity: What makes ideas interesting.

I like building things from concept to launch, whether that’s a website, a content strategy, or a story that doesn’t exist yet.
