Who Am I?

Brittany DiStefano, 30 and proud of it, long-time restaurant server, traveler, and natural wordsmith. 

My whole life I've been coming up with ads, jingles, and social media captions. I'm the go-to person when anyone needs an email written or a text edited. But until recently, I thought a career in writing meant I'd have to sit in an office and watch the clock. 

Now that I know I can help clients around the world from the comfort of my own couch-or the edge of the sea-I'm even more passionate about this thing called writing. 

Write. Save. Travel. Repeat. 

What Can I Do For YOU?

It all depends! 

For businesses, I offer copy and content services. Copy is my jam, and I love working on slogans, product descriptions, newsletters, and web copy. I write easy-to-read copy that engages and persuades!

I also write some content, as seen in my portfolio. My favorite topics to write on are travel, food&bev, and lifestyle/relationships. Content marketing can be an effective way to grow a captive audience. 

For individuals, I'm happy to help rewrite those "icky" texts, emails, complaints, and cover letters. How often have you put something off because the dread of writing it gave you anxiety? Outsource it to me and let that stress go!
