Back to my roots in marketing, academic (UCLA), and cultural interest writing and PR. My special knack is making dry content interesting, infused with human interest elements, and creating connection with the reader. I apply these skills to design projects as well, when warranted. From a current client, for whom I write case studies on the variety of software applications used in business: "Jean is a pleasure to work with. She has a talent for taking a scattered body of material and transforming it into a cohesive writing piece designed to meet the exact needs of the project. I'm always impressed with Jean's writing and have never even needed to request an edit!" ~ Chris Badgett, LifterLMS CEO
