										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">After so many years of working with a diversity of magazines around the world to develop travel and lifestyle editorials, and collaborating with other corporate/hospitality brands and digital agencies as a copywriter to develop a variety of content for websites, blogs and other marketing materials; I thought it could be beneficial to break it down to showcase what I might be able to do when collaborating with you. Whether it be providing content for large corporations looking for &#8220;smart&#8221; writing that is customized for search engine optimization (SEO); or working with hotels and other brands on a local level to develop press releases, marketing materials or local guides; I enjoy having the ability to work with my clients directly to make it a true collaboration and deliver the style and feel that is needed to best represent the client&#8217;s message.</p>
