About

Hello! I'm Laura, and I am an experienced writer and editor with the ability to produce compelling marketing, journalistic or literary copy for a wide range of media formats and audiences.

I believe effective professional writing ensures that both the content and its presentation are both delivered with excellence, and that's a job I take seriously — whether I'm writing new content, editing existing material or proofreading copy for my clients. When it comes to connecting with a reader, how you say something is just as important as what you say.

Known for my eagle eye, I am a stickler for accuracy, with persistent attention to detail. Trained in journalism and English, my solid knowledge of grammar, vocabulary, punctuation and AP Style equips me to ensure that errors do not unnecessarily detract from any communication.

My 20 years of experience in marketing and public relations includes both corporate and non-profit work in varied industries such as education, real estate, travel, healthcare, banking, human resources and more. A self-starter, I've had the unique experience of developing from scratch the marketing function within several organizations.

Well acquainted with the specific styles of writing needed for websites, press releases, brochures, annual reports, fundraising campaigns, print collateral, newsletter/magazine stories, direct mail, email marketing and social media, I make it my mission to accomplish my clients’ goals by crafting polished, credible messages with tone and style that capture the heart of each organization or individual.

Based in Williamsburg, Virginia, my business serves local and national clients, predominantly throughout the Hampton Roads and Richmond regions of Virginia. I would love to work with you!
