Hi, I'm Gabby.
I write. In fact, I wrote everything on this website. Cool, right?

ABOUT
Here are the CliffsNotes:
I'm from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, but high-tailed it to Toronto when I was 19. (I prefer coffee shops to canola fields.)
There, I studied musical theatre for a year and came to the conclusion that, while I love to make art, my skills are better suited behind the scenes.
So I started writing!
I studied public relations at Humber College and worked at its student union, IGNITE, all the while — first as a content writer and then as managing editor. Post-grad, I climbed the ladder at a content-driven startup, managing web verticals on everything from B2B to BDSM, and then pivoted to internal comms, where I work now.
When I'm offline, you can find me on the phone with my sister, exploring Montreal's southwest on my bike and making my love for the latest moody alternative pop album everyone's problem — often all at the same time.
RESUMÉ
SKILLS & EXPERTISE
-
SEO Writing/Web Writing. I'm a whiz at balancing EEAT with engagement.
-
AP and CP Style Editing. "Per cent" in CP; "percent" or, when accompanied by digits, "%" in AP. Try me!
-
Keyword Research. My favourite tools are Semrush and Incognito.
-
Content Planning. I keep my finger on the pulse.
-
Community Management. No unmediated comments on my watch.
-
Video Content Production. I've produced and edited webinars through Zoom and created content for YouTube and TikTok.
-
Strong Written and Oral Communication. I strongly believe too much information is better than too little and that messages are clearest when you use the fewest words possible.
