Sarah Santos
@sarahsantos
I am an innovative copywriter specializing in SEO and conversion copy.
What I'm looking for
I am an innovative copywriter and content specialist with hands-on experience writing SEO-driven web copy, product descriptions, blogs, emails, and social media content. I combine conversion-focused storytelling with disciplined editing and design skills using Adobe Creative Suite and Canva.
Across contract roles with Canadian Tire, Great Canadian Entertainment and multiple agencies, I produced SEO-led product descriptions, content calendars, and conversion copy—including Four Nations Cup product descriptions for Sportchek. I regularly use WordPress, Yoast, Semrush and Google Analytics, and coordinate work with project-management tools like Jira, Wrike and ClickUp to measure and optimize performance.
I am seeking a full-time role at an employee-centric organization that values creativity where I can continue delivering measurable content that drives conversions and builds brand voice.
