About Me
My name is Susan. I’m a writer, editor, and business owner located in the suburbs of Washington, DC. Highlights of my writing and editing career include:
- Marketing writer for a boutique design agency. In that role, I got to work on diverse writing projects from brochures for start up businesses to presentations for global corporations…and everything in between.
- Proposal director for a $2.5 billion company. I helped map out the strategies and write winning proposals for the leading travel industry concessionaire. I wrote and edited the proposals, managed a team of creatives, set the project schedules, and made sure all the moving pieces came together.
- Magazine editor for the largest publishing company in the world. I started my career in the trenches, editing technical articles for a large engineering magazine. The editorial skills I learned on that job have been the foundation of my entire career.

As a freelance writer and editor, I work on a broad range of projects. I usually work from my home office, but if you need me onsite, I’m more than happy to do that. Whether you simply need copy for a brochure, someone to maintain your business blog, or you need a person on-site for a few months, I’m always interested in a good job.
