ABOUT ME
A bit about me...
Hello, there! I'm Maggie. Writer by nature, professional communications specialist through practice.
As a writing professional with a penchant for creativity, I'm passionate about supporting all kinds of projects, including...
Business needs: Professional documents or marketing content, including web/print copy (writing, editing, proofreading)
Academic works: Essays or theses (editing/proofreading)
Creative endeavors: Fiction or nonfiction pieces (ghostwriting, editing, proofreading)
​
Whatever the project, I'm here to help you reach your goals and make sure your final product shines.
​
My goal is yours, whether that's to create a strong brand, convert leads into customers, polish that final manuscript, or something else. With an academic background in professional writing and valuable experience on creative teams, I'm excited to work with you on making your project goals come to fruition. Sound good? Shoot me an email through my contact page to talk more.
​
Together, let's soar to greater heights.

And yes, that was a thinly veiled attempt to connect back to the hot air balloon photo.
