hi, I’m Becca!
I’ve been writing for as long as I can remember. The first thing I remember writing was a “book” about a lizard named Lizzy when I was probably eight years old. I also tried to illustrate it, but it turns out that my drawing skills end at the “doodling” level.
Anyway, after studying communication in college, I landed at a digital marketing agency where I learned the basics of content marketing, particularly SEO-optimized web content. I also spent four years working as a content writer and editor for a software startup, which taught me a lot about the tech world, business management, the software development process, and creating content beyond blogs and websites.
Although I’ve freelanced on and off for years, I took the plunge into full-time freelancing in 2023.
