Content Strategist & Senior Writer

Content that
actually does
something.

I help organizations connect with their audience, build trust, and move people toward action. In any industry where clarity matters.

What I do

Three ways I make content work harder.

Whether your content needs a full rebuild, a strategic audit, or a stronger foundation from the start, I work across the entire communications lifecycle.

01
Content audits & gap analysis

I review what you have, identify what's underperforming and why, and map out exactly what needs to change. No dashboards, just clear editorial judgment about what your content is and isn't doing.

02
Content strategy & structure

Before writing a word, I figure out who the piece is actually for, what it needs to argue, and how it should be built. Strategy and execution from the same person, no handoff required.

03
Long-form content & rebuilds

Blog posts, guides, product pages, FAQs, written from scratch or rebuilt from weak drafts. Especially strong in complex, regulated, and trust-critical industries.


The problem I solve

Most content exists.
Very little of it works.

In any industry where trust matters, financial services, healthcare, technology, professional services, content that is vague, generic, or aimed at the wrong audience does not just underperform. It actively erodes the confidence you are trying to build.

The gap between "we have content" and "our content does something" is almost always a strategy problem, not a volume problem. That is the gap I close.

Selected work

The work, not just the words.

Every piece below started as a weak brief or an agency draft aimed at the wrong audience. The industries are fintech and cybersecurity. The skills transfer anywhere.

Fintech · Moneris
Fraud prevention tools: a complete guide for Canadian businesses

Agency draft targeted enterprise fraud teams. I rebuilt it entirely for SMB owners, cutting 9 sections to 4, reidentifying the audience, and making the Moneris CTA earn its place.

E-commerce · Moneris
10 stunning Wix beauty salon website templates

Generic listicle with interchangeable descriptions. Rebuilt with a consistent "best for" framework, real template differentiation, and a CTA tied directly to the Moneris-Wix partnership.

Payments · Moneris
How to prevent payment fraud in your business

Draft focused on the wrong threat type for the audience. I reframed around the actual SMB problem, built a tighter thesis, and structured it around how payment providers solve it automatically.

Cybersecurity · ExpressVPN
VPN landing pages, Thailand & Brazil

Commercial landing pages for high-traffic VPN markets. Audience-specific positioning, trust-building structure, and conversion-focused copy for a globally recognized cybersecurity brand.

Mike is an excellent copywriter. Editing his work was never a chore and he stuck to our company guidelines and practices. He delivered engaging articles across a range of topics whilst keeping regular contact about timelines and any questions he had. He was a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend him.

Strategy and execution, from the same person.

I help organizations connect with their audience, build trust, and move people toward action. I do this by making complex information clear, credible, and useful for the people who actually need to read it.

My background spans fintech, payments, SaaS, and cybersecurity, industries where vague content does not just underperform, it costs trust. But the skills I built there transfer to any organization that needs to communicate clearly in a regulated, competitive, or high-stakes environment.

I work across the full content lifecycle: auditing what exists, identifying what is broken and why, and building what is missing. I do not hand off between strategy and writing. I do both, which means nothing gets lost in translation.

Based in the Greater Toronto Area. Open to full-time roles and freelance contracts globally.
