What I bring to the table

Services

10 years into my career, I center the audience in everything I do. In my writing, I can turn around a quick news hit that informs, a personal essay that compels, or a reported magazine piece that enlightens. My editing focuses on crafting a narrative and answering questions readers might have. In an engagement capacity, I have extensive experience with social media, newsletters, building press packages or strategies, and I subspecialize in events and podcasts.

Writing & editing

My reporting specializes in human behavior, societal structures, and in particular issues that disproportionately impact women. I love lifestyle reporting, commerce work, and travel, and I can edit for both narrative structure and style.

Audience & content strategy

I’ve managed audience plans for major editorial projects with millions of viewers, the promotion of live events that have gone to a registration wait list, podcast video experiments that have doubled views, and am now in my newsletters era.

“Julie handled several freelance writing assignments for Dering Hall … and consistently delivered well-written, interesting pieces that were perfectly suited for our digital audience. With her concise, witty writing style, she clearly understands how to create content that will engage readers on the web and was very professional in delivering assignments promptly.”

Faith Smith, Senior Director of Events at The 19th News

I worked closely with Julie on a variety of projects including event planning and promotion, building marketing calendars and real-time audience engagement. She tackled each project with enthusiasm, clarity and creativity. She’s an engaging writer and quick editor. Her planning and communication throughout were always top notch. I always understood the goals and priorities as well as how they would be executed.
