As a member of BuzzFeed's Shopping & Products team, I reiterate upon BuzzFeed's revolutionary approach to copywriting, to inform our audience of the products they need. I'm like your Internet Best Friend, putting together a list of items I picked out just for you. To do this, I call upon my experience as a copywriter, ghostwriter, and copy-editor to cultivate a multi-disciplinary voice for all the copy I create. The proof of this is in the writing, so check out the content I've created at https://www.buzzfeed.com/devrickiyota9 and give me some views (maybe buy a few things)!
