I’m a sports writer blending research, SEO, and analysis to deliver engaging coverage of baseball and golf.
What I'm looking for
I’m a dedicated sports writer and analyst covering baseball, college football, college basketball, golf, hockey, and professional tournaments for American and international outlets. I combine research with clear, engaging storytelling to make the game understandable—and the stakes feel real.
At Pro Football Network, I covered baseball, college football, and college basketball while publishing 250+ articles across multiple sports within four months. I wrote news, analysis, previews, rankings, and feature stories, consistently meeting tight editorial deadlines while staying aligned with SEO standards.
As a Golf Writer for Last Word On Sports, I cover professional golf tournaments, player performances, and industry developments. I analyze PGA Tour and LIV Golf trends and controversies, and I’ve written feature articles on top golfers including Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy.
I also work as a Freelance Content Writer on Upwork, producing SEO-optimized articles across multiple topics. I manage client deadlines and content calendars, conduct extensive research to support every piece, and focus on delivering reliable, high-volume content readers can trust.
