My Writing Manifesto

I've reveled in the writing process for as long as I can remember. Since exchanging my #2 pencil for a keyboard, I’ve been crafting content for the digital world. From brainstorming and outlining to forming gripping arguments, I relish the unique challenge of intermingling words. Powerful storytelling is an art form—reliant upon consistency, variety, and unwavering attention to detail. Quality beats quantity every single time. While creating something you love is an awesome experience, writing for your audiences first is paramount.

These three convictions make every piece much more impactful. Take it from someone who believes the path to success is paved by professionalism, an honest voice, and just a little quirkiness. Let’s not forget the mighty Oxford comma, either!


An Adaptive Jack of all Trades—Because “Mastery” Begets Complacency

I kickstarted my writing career roughly two years ago—stepping outside of my comfort zone to traverse the freelancing landscape. Versatility is my bread and butter. I embrace the challenge of becoming a subject matter expert. Additionally, I specialize in adapting my voice for the task at hand. No matter how adept I become in a certain area, I’ll never want to stop learning.

Much of my work involves commercial technology, consumer technology, and gaming. However, I’m continually expanding my horizons. As a research hound, I love the thrill of uncovering new information. That hunger for personal and professional growth—plus ample caffeine intake—drives me forward.

Lastly, working with people is my forte. My experience is built atop a customer service foundation; I apply those lessons to form long-term partnerships. What’s next? Let’s create some exciting content together.

“We worked with Tyler for several months during which he proved himself as a creative writer and good researcher. Among the assignments we gave Tyler was writing feature stories and video game guides. He is capable of finding information on both familiar and new topics, as well as using his first-hand experience to produce a fine piece of work.

Tyler supports his thoughts with strong arguments and the structure of his guides made it easy to understand them. He is open to criticism and offers ideas of his own, which can benefit the story.

I value the work Tyler did for us and strongly recommend him as a writer who can deliver any kind of text and do profound research of a variety of topics.”

“Since taking over the content management for my Apple/tech related blog, Tyler has proven to be a major asset to the website’s well-being. His writing speaks for itself - he has a clear knack for putting words together in such a way that readers gravitate toward the content and want to continue reading. If you take a look as some of his sample writings you will be able to see this for yourself. Not only is his writing great, he also takes pride in seeing his writing benefit the reader.

Tyler frequently gives me suggestions based on what he has seen competitors doing or his previous experiences. Going this extra step is what sets Tyler apart from other writers that I have worked with in the past. If you are looking for someone who is passionate about what they do and always looking to go the extra mile, I would highly consider using Tyler for your next writing project!”
