ABOUT LIBBY

I love how words and visuals bring stories to life, inspire emotions, deliver knowledge, and build community. This passion has fuelled three decades of content creation and marketing across Australia's media, tech and publishing industries - for both B2C and B2B audiences.  
 
I provide marketing expertise from strategy to publication, but my niche is copywriting, proofreading, and content for websites, email, blogs, social media and professional communications. My sweet spot? Crafting engaging, human-centred, digestible content that builds loyalty and converts. People love reading it, and Google does too!

To learn a little more about me and my love of colour, patterns, symmetry, organic structures, nature, water and creativity of any kind, head to my personal Instagram and Pinterest feeds.

I am also a wanderluster, dutiful yogini, narrative history junkie and 'beautiful films' buff!
