Health and wellness freelance writer

Welcome!

My name is Chrissy, I am a passionate and qualified health and wellness writer. I am a university qualified nutritionist with a Bachelor of Nutrition from La Trobe University. I also have a Bachelor of Arts degree majoring in public relations, journalism and media culture, an advanced diploma in marketing and certificate in gut health from the University of Colorado.

Before becoming a nutritionist, I was a marketing professional who gained extensive writing experience after 7 years of working in this profession.

These skills ensure that I have an unique and credible skillset that I hope will align well with your business’s requirements.

As a nutritionist, I specialise in health, nutrition and wellness writing that is based off of scientific literature. My writing is completely customised in your unique brand voice, I can be formal and scientific or more amiable, holistic or rebellious with the evidence provided and tone of voice used.

I am most passionate about all things health and wellness but am also open to working with other brands who are consciously minded.

The Process

Before I write a piece, I get a brief with required word count, turnaround timeframe, objectives, audience, key competitors, key message, keywords and provide a quote. Generally, a 1,000-word article will be fully referenced with between 10 – 15 academic references and written with the latest SEO principles in mind. The turnaround time-frame is usually between 1 – 2 weeks depending on workload.

Then I scour over the latest scientific peer reviewed studies and formulate the outline. The end result is a factual and fully referenced article ensuring that it piques the reader’s interest. One round of changes is accepted if necessary.

Who I’ve worked with

In the health and wellness space I have published fully referenced articles for Allied Health Support, Healthieyoo and will have several articles that will be published with Wellbeing Wild magazine in February and May 2023. Additionally, I regularly write for my holistic nutrition blog called Sunshine Health and Nutrition.

I’ve also written content for Disney, Expedia, Wotif, Aveo, numerous tourism organisations and property developers when I worked in marketing.
