Hold on. Hold on. I’m perfectly capable of writing 30-characters subject headers that send your readers clicking through in a heartbeat. But when my writing gets a chance to breath, it goes.

I can’t thank you enough for all your amazing work on this story! I’m so thrilled with how it turned out

– Rachel Chang, Freelance editor at TripAdvisor

Jolyn is able to work independently, and quickly after explaining to her my services and target audiences that I wish to attract. She will bounce off ideas with me and recommend to me what articles I should write as well as the fitness trainer. And so far, each article requires very minimal revision from me as her knowledge of fitness and sports nutrition is great in her own research as well.

– Benjamin Tan, Founder of The District Training

If not, take a deep breath because…

I’m standing on the precipice, ready to launch, to pitch, a folder of notes tucked tightly under my left arm, the exposed edges of the paper flapping wildly in the wind. Welcome to my crazy world of floating ideas. I would clasp your hand warmly, a big grin breaking onto my face. I am alive, effervescent, living life to the fullest and you should be too. 

Can we just dump all the blah over the edge? That stale, monotonous copy that floods the internet, making you sound exactly like the competitor(s) you can do so much better than. Let’s make it exciting, relevant, informative, engaging and perhaps even send a little crinkle of a smile up the corners of your reader’s eye. Good copy should feel that way, almost like speaking out loud to your readers. 

What’s more, you’re entitled to all these perks with me as your writer:

Customer experience

Decades of customer experience has earned me both eBay Powerseller status and Etsy Star Seller awards. This means maintaining a perfect 5-star rating on a moving average! It all starts with the mindset of “how can I help you achieve the best outcome?” and pre-empting any issues the customers might face. 

Designer perspective

Websites, flyers, brochures, entire brand assets – I’ve designed them all. I intrinsically understand how copy should be displayed, the emphasis to be made, the small and big wins of user experience, down to display (or not) of even the tiniest punctuation. 

Solution Oriented Management

Hired me for copy but the blog post isn’t displaying right? As a front-end web developer, it matters to me to not just drop the copy off when it’s done, but to iron out the fine details so you can show off that cool, new amazing article or product description in an appealing format that works.  

Keen eye for photography

My photos speak for themselves both online and in real life exhibitions. A perfect frame captures a moment and breathes another dimension into good copy. You’ve got a photojournalist right here – or I can direct your photographers towards what makes most sense for your story.  

Team Player

Need me to work with marketing, tech, sales and even HR teams on top of that? Years at multinational companies and startups alike have equipped me with skills needed to navigate approval chains, work culture quirks and achieve your project goals together as a enthusiastic team player. 

Digital Marketing 

As a former full-time digital marketer, I’ve executed multi-million dollar campaigns across Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube for brand partners like Singapore Airlines, Boeing, ASICS, Toyota and more. I understand the differences in specifications of running advertisements across platforms, including best copy practices.  

Cross cultural experience

Singapore – where I grew up – is a melting pot of cultures, and I’ve worked for and with people from all around the world. My slow travels have led me to spend extensive time in over 50 countries around the world, and allowed me to appreciate and empathize with varied points of view. I cross cultural divides multiple times a year, and enjoy writing and working internationally. 

Food 

I’ve written extensively for Asian Food Network (AFN), which has a 500K+ monthly page views and 3M+ fans on social. Publications range from listicles featuring Pan-Asian recipes to in-depth pieces about local ingredients and restaurant news. I’ve done food tasting, photography and coverage for both Michelin-starred restaurants, and Singapore’s humble and absolutely unmissable hawker fare as well
