Content Writer, Research Specialist, BA in Marine Biology

Hi there! I'm a content writer and SEO strategist with a strong research background and a genuine love for storytelling, especially when it’s rooted in real places, people, and experiences. You’ll find me propping open my laptop at The Getty in Los Angeles, working where creativity and inspiration are part of the view, or tucked into a small-town coffee bar along the Amalfi Coast, Kindle in hand, sipping a caffè between writing sessions. 🌍 Lifestyle & Perspective - Splitting my time between California 🇺🇸 and Southern Italy 🇮🇹 - My approach to writing is grounded in observation, research, and structure, not trends or fluff - This allows me to adapt seamlessly across industries while keeping content clear, human, and effective ✍️ What I Do - Write SEO-optimized blogs and long-form content that feel human, not robotic - Structure content to perform in search engines and AI/LLM results - Adapt tone, voice, and formatting to match brand guidelines and reference content - Use AI as a drafting tool if necessary, then refine, edit, and elevate 🔍 SEO & Tools - Comfortable working across different SEO guidelines per client - Hands-on experience with Yoast SEO, SEMrush, and Google Keyword Planner - Strong understanding of on-page SEO, internal linking, and clean structure 🏢 Professional Experience - Content writer for multiple marketing firms via Upwork - Content writer for an analog tech company - Experience in industries such as travel, hospitality, lifestyle, home services, health, and B2B 🎓 Background - B.A. in Marine Biology from the University of Hawaiʻi - Research-driven mindset with a sharp eye for clarity and accuracy ✨ Why Clients Work With Me - Clear communication and reliable delivery - Strong editorial judgment - Content that balances strategy, storytelling, and real-world perspective If you’re looking for a writer who combines SEO strategy, thoughtful structure, and creative storytelling, let's talk! I’d love to connect and collaborate.
