gillian-burgessWhat I Do

As a freelance writer, editor and marketer, I help people tell their stories clearly and effectively.

Every piece of writing has a message to communicate or a goal to achieve – whether it’s search engine optimized website copy or a nonfiction e-book – and I am skilled at finding the right voice for each one. I work with companies, nonprofits and independent authors to identify, attract and engage their target audience with valuable content. I deliver on-brand and on-time copy to meet my clients’ goals. I am an active member of the Editorial Freelancers Association.

What I’ve Done

I have more than 10 years of professional writing experience, with a focus on advertising copywriting and content marketing. I co-founded a boutique advertising and branding agency, and before that, I managed web content, digital marketing and outreach for a San Francisco-based nonprofit. I’ve worked on a wide range of projects for many different brands, from small startups to established businesses.

Where I’m From

I am a curious explorer and an enthusiastic eater. I am a Northern Californian by birth and a New Orleanian by choice. Though I miss both super burritos and parades, I have spent the last few years falling in love with cities far from home.

I now live in Barcelona, Spain, after three years in Naples, Italy, and I have strong opinions on olive oil, coffee and pizza. In my spare time, I write about food and travel at TravelingToTaste.com.
