Content. Editorial. Storytelling.

Get your content moving again

Maybe your writer left, your editor’s hands are full, or nobody’s minding the content calendar. Tell me which part is stuck and I’ll pick it up. Or hand me the whole thing so you don’t have to chase the handoffs.

Ten years in content has taught me what keeps a reader on the page and what gets a piece noticed by Google and AI. Getting both right takes technical know-how and research, but it also takes craft: the art of telling a story well. I’ve done every part of the job myself, so I can fit in wherever a piece is missing from your content puzzle.

Pick the piece you need

How much you hand over to me is up to you. It depends on where your team is short and what you’d rather not deal with yourself.

One step in your process

When you need help with just one part.

I can handle topic ideation, research, content briefs, writing, editing, or publishing, and fit into your team’s existing workflow. Briefs are my favorite. A clear one gets everyone on the same page before a word is written, so there’s no back-and-forth later.

The heavy lifting

When content needs something extra.

Research-heavy guides, expert-led articles, old posts that need a refresh, or a pile of AI drafts that need fact-checking and a human touch. I’ll take those on one at a time or by the hundred.

The whole workflow

When you don’t want to chase handoffs.

I’ll plan the calendar, write SEO briefs, coordinate your writers and editors, and keep the timeline moving. If your team is small, I’ll do the whole thing myself, from topic ideation to writing and publishing.

I built the blog around the questions their agents kept hearing from buyers and sellers, matched to keyword research, and kept zero-volume questions when they were real, recurring needs. I handle topic selection, keyword research, writing, monthly interviews with their team, and decisions on which old posts to refresh or redirect.

Eventbrite’s blog had hundreds of outdated posts after a major Google update. I refreshed 100+ of them in an AI-assisted workflow, verifying facts, updating stats, and keeping the voice on-brand. I manually refreshed seasonal guides, including the Thanksgiving, Halloween, and New Year’s Eve party ideas. When Eventbrite moved its content in-house, I was plugged in as a researcher and publisher for the team.

Tell me where your content is stuck.

Maybe it’s a backlog of outdated posts, a pile of AI drafts nobody trusts yet, or a blog that gets published but never brings in leads. Maybe no one owns the workflow and things keep slipping through the cracks. Tell me where things are stuck, and I’ll tell you honestly where I’d plug in: running the workflow, doing the research, or editing and refreshing what you already have.

Good content runs on storytelling, and I was writing stories long before I ever wrote for clients.

Punjab Worldbuilding

While researching for my stories, I couldn’t find a single reliable place to look up how Punjabis actually lived: what they ate, what a bazaar looked like, and which customs and hierarchies shaped their days in pre-modern Punjab. So I started building one myself, a series of reference guides for writers and creatives who want their world to feel Punjabi without spelling it out.
