EXPERIENCE
Throughout most of my freelance writing career, I have had the privilege of collaborating with professionals specializing in digital marketing and SEO. These collaborations were not only rewarding financially but also required my full attention and commitment, limiting the time I could dedicate to working for content companies. Despite this, I maintained a long-standing relationship with Verblio, contributing as a freelance writer for approximately seven and a half years (the beginning of 2017 until recently). During this time, my level of involvement varied, sometimes working full-time depending on my client’s workload.
My diverse clientele has included YouTube creators, SEO specialists, and professionals focused on niche industries. I’ve written for real estate agents, crypto experts, tech enthusiasts, video game reviewers, attorneys, and automotive professionals, among others. This broad spectrum of clients allowed me to refine my skills in producing high-quality, engaging, and informative content tailored to each industry's unique needs. My adaptability and dedication have been the foundation of my success as a freelance writer.
