LAURA J. SOUTHWICK
Freelance Editor and Copywriter
I'm an experienced editor and writer with a keen eye for detail and a good ear for brand voice.
​
If you need great content, I'm here for you. I can help you say what you want to say—exactly how you want to say it.

ABOUT
Skills, Experience, and Education
I have 15+ years of experience in the writing and editing business, an MA in Rhetoric (that's a thing), and a knack for making my clients look good.
​
I specialize in simplifying complex topics, which makes me a particularly good fit for finance and tech pieces. But don't count me out for work on other topics, too.
​
My work has appeared on various websites and print media for clients large and small. Examples include Ally Bank, Inman, and Hyper Networks.
​
I understand how quality content and SEO strategy work together to get first-page rankings. That's why my clients get content that comes up among the top spots for their target search queries time and again.
