Copywriter
I believe businesses have the capacity to make the world a better place by offering their solutions to people who need them, so my desire is to help business owners connect with their audience in a way that guarantees an increase in sales.
I am a Communication student but I prefer to refer to myself as one deeply interested in words, sales, the internet and everything in-between.
Kindly find attached a link to my portfolio for your perusal; a testament of how words remain man's greatest tool for persuasion.
