20+ years of marketing and communication experience

Freelance copywriter and creative director

For more than 20 years I've worked as a copywriter and creative director for dozens of clients in technology, financial services, and now — after earning my Master of Science in Health Communication – healthcare.

With a flair for communicating the essence of message and brand, I'll take your strategic direction and turn it into compelling copy and content that focuses squarely on your audience

Sometimes I'm called in because deadlines loom and internal resources are swamped. Other times, it's because freelance expertise brings a fresh set of eyes to a project.

A few of my LinkedIn recommendations:

“As an agency owner, I oversee a lot of creative development and work with many writers. Richard is one of the best in terms of thinking through a client’s true benefits and how to position them to the target audience. He’s insightful, easy to work with and a great writer. We also like that he’s a quick study and can work across our client categories with ease.”

Mike Gunderson
CEO, Gundir

 “Richard helped us on our initial direct mail campaign to new franchise financing prospects. This was a unique challenge for us since it was our first time out in the market with a questionable list. Based on that program, we also used Richard to help us develop a Thank You gift package for our Partners and he also wrote our first Advertorial. He is talented and a joy to work with and we recommend him highly.”

Daphne Church
Marketing Strategist

 “I've worked with Richard on a couple writing projects. He's quick to get up to speed, thorough about taking/iterating on feedback and is a fantastic writer on a range of topics.”
