My background in writing starts as a 17-year-old engineering student struggling to find some way to make extra income. Frankly, I just needed some money to buy video games and stumbled into freelance writing because a friend told me about it. I didn't think I was that much of a writer but decided to jump in with both feet on Upwork cuz why not? Five years down the line, I've written articles, books, technical papers, and brochures on just about every business and SEO topic out there. Not a master by any means, yet when I write stuff now, it gets read to the end (often), and people take the action we want them to take, so that's a win to me. Let's talk shop on Linkedin
