A freelance writer dedicated to your success

I’m Ashley

I’m a freelance writer and editor with happy clients and bylines in magazines across the country. As a pro wordsmith for 25 years and a lover of language from the time I learned to read, I’ve been playing with words for quite some time. And I plan to do it for many years to come. When I’m not writing or editing for clients, I’m probably doing some kind of fibre arts. I love the process of creating beautiful things, whether they’re engaging stories or works of art. (Full disclosure: I’m a much better writer than artist.)

My professional background

In my early career, I edited newspaper articles, managed a couple of magazines, and wrote multimedia content for a marketing department.

Since I established my freelance writing and editing business in 2010, I’ve written stories and edited manuscripts for a variety of clients with different needs. I specialize in higher education and healthcare feature writing, and doctors, nurses, faculty, and researchers at medical schools and teaching hospitals are some of my favourite people to interview.

I’ve also interviewed authors, astrophysicists, and CEOs of multimillion-dollar companies. Oh, and one billionaire. And an actual, real-life rocket scientist.

I love a challenge.

Let's work together

On several occasions I’ve been told “Thanks for making me sound smart.” I can do the same for you
