Digital health writer and creative strategist specializing in empathetic, behavior-change health content.
What I'm looking for
I am a digital health writer and creative strategist who transforms clinical and wellness concepts into accessible, user-centered content for digital platforms. I focus on clear, culturally relevant messaging and plain-language patient education across dental, audiology, mental health, and public health contexts.
My work includes developing patient-education materials, campaign messaging, and branded visuals that improve understanding and motivate preventive action; I produced 400+ chronic-illness-informed pieces and 100+ oral-health assets while growing clinical social presence. I also translated diagnostic audiology findings into patient-friendly communications and created 30+ digital materials for a hearing clinic.
I bring skills in behaviour-change communication, content strategy, and visual communication, and I seek roles where I can combine health literacy writing with creative strategy to strengthen patient experiences and public health outcomes.
