About

I’m Katie, a Nashville-based freelance content writer/marketer, creative writer, and editor.

I write thoughtful, researched marketing pieces like blog posts, ebooks, and case studies for B2B, SaaS, and e-commerce companies.

A brief history:

After studying English and creative writing at Saint Louis University, I covered police chases, protests, elections, and the city’s 1,000-year flood for Nashville’s NBC affiliate. As a journalist, a zest for lifelong learning is a must (some call it nosiness, I say it’s curiosity). My news career expanded into marketing and has since been spent conducting interviews to learn more about a subject and distilling that research into engaging, customer-first copy in a brand’s unique voice.

• My content writing has been published by Headspace, Close, Emma, Deck Commerce, enVista, Groups360, and more.

• My journalism work is found at Axios, The Tennessean, BookPage, Tennessee Register, Nashville Scene, and Advertising Week, among others.

• My creative writing has appeared in Kiln, Regime Magazine, Tethered by Letters, and on the side of a Nashville transit bus. My first book, a short story collection called Cheers, Somebody, was published in 2017 by Vine Leaves Press.

Past clients include:

Awards

• LinkedIn ProFinder’s Best of 2016 for editing

• Thumbtack’s Best of 2016 and Best of 2015 for highly rated writing/editing work

+ Succinct web copy

... And more. If you’re searching “freelance writer” or “freelance editor,” I’ve rocked a project like yours before.
