About Copywriter Chelsea Rathburn

blueshirtAs a freelance copywriter and content strategist, I help businesses and nonprofits define and communicate their core beliefs. For more than 10 years, I’ve been writing and editing communications for diverse clients and media. My ability to deliver creative, on-target communications on the first take has been praised as “mind-reading,” prompting one client to remark, “She makes me sound more like me. It’s a remarkable gift.”

I haven’t always been a freelance marketing writer. I have taught world literature, composition and poetry writing at the college level. I’ve written and produced stories for an NPR affiliate. I’ve written direct mail packages for an auto insurance company, and produced videos for a large nonprofit. I’ve even worked as a parts picker in an auto parts warehouse. (That was a long, long time ago.)

I’m also an award-winning poet (visit www.chelsearathburn.com to learn more about that side of my life) with a master of fine arts degree in writing. I believe that my background in poetry and education is an asset to my clients: I pay close attention to the sound and music of my copy, as well as the message, and from years of teaching I'm skilled at breaking down complex subjects and presenting them to others.
