Welcome to my freelance content creator portfolio. Over the years I’ve written, recorded, or researched an enormous amount of content for B2B SaaS companies, email marketing service providers, content marketing software companies, marketing automation companies, SEO tools, content curation tools, and many other digital marketing businesses.
Some of the best and most visible content I’ve created is ghostwritten, like the content marketing column I used to ghostwrite for Forbes or the adtech blog posts and whitepapers I’ve written for a premiere advertising service. That all has to stay private, but here’s everything else:
BLOG POSTSI’ve published over a million words worth of blog posts as a freelance content creator over the last decade. Most of my content writing portfolio is actually blog posts, though I enjoy working in other content formats.
