about me

what i do

Having written over 600 scripts, I know how to write for every demographic. My clients have ranged from large multi-channel networks all the way down to passionate individual creators. This gives me extensive experience working with client feedback, edits, CTAs, and SEO integration. It's also why I'm top-rated on UpWork and my profile is full of positive reviews.

I have a passion for story-telling. It’s at the heart of any great script and why I have a passion for my work. That grabbing attention with a hook, structuring the content in clear sections, and trimming down to only essential information. Pacing and momentum are key. Building tension and including little payoffs is just as important as packing a story full of interesting details. Most importantly, your channel’s voice needs to be unique.

☑ Creative writing — Driving engagement with interesting and attention-grabbing content tailored to target audiences.
☑ Research — Exploring the subject matter with academic sources to make authoritative story-telling.
☑ Editing — Structuring content to retain attention.
☑ Marketing — Including CTAs with persuasive writing to incentivize prospective viewers.

Freelance Writer

I was born and raised in Melbourne, Australia. With half my family coming from Bali, my life has been filled with stories from an early age. Different cultures, different languages, and different interpretations on life. In school, I found the best way for me to express myself was through writing. This muscle only strengthened through university, where I studied philosophy and politics. Shortly after my Master’s degree, I began a professional writing career, slowly building a reputation on Upwork until it became my full-time occupation. I have now had the good fortune to have worked with some of the biggest documentary-style YouTube channels. This has tied my academic experience together with my professional schools. And I am excited to continue pushing the limits of my creativity.
