About Natalia.

They say the hardest topic to write about is yourself, and while I completely agree, I’m always up for a challenge. The fact that I check grocery lists and music lyrics for spelling and grammatical errors might say more about me than other facts, like where I went to school, but in case anyone wants to know...






















To me, writing is like putting together a giant puzzle. When the words are a perfect fit, you really get the whole picture. Past clients include:

Things you might not need to know, but make for fun bits of trivia:


#1: When texting, I’ll go through the extra effort of putting the apostrophe in “you’re” because spelling it wrong for convenience is just wrong.


#4: The phrase “PIN number” really bugs me. Isn’t it redundant?

#2: Sometimes I read English words in Spanish for (tiny) giggles. “Once upon a time” becomes “Eleven upon a time.”

#3: I once dreamed a client’s web copy got deleted and started rewriting it...in my dream.

#5: When I was 12, my best friend helped me remember when to spell it “desert” or “dessert.” The trick: we usually want more of the one with more S’s.

#6: I love writing so much, I’m working on my first novel. You can read more about that little endeavor here.

I studied journalism and creative writing at the University of Miami, which taught me that there can be truth in fiction and fiction in the truth. While I was still in college, I worked in a variety of jobs in the communications industry—an ad agency, a PR company, then at several magazines—and learned that an awareness for one’s audience is just as important as craft. My first “real” job was a managing editor position at a startup luxury lifestyle magazine on Miami Beach. While most wouldn’t think of planning photo shoots on a sandy white beach and writing about $4000 skirts as a dose of reality, the experience was an eye-opener for me. I started my business in 2006 because it allows me to combine my love for storytelling with my experience in marketing and branding.


As for where I learned to write...I suspect I got it from reading everything as a child, from Roald Dahl novels to billboard signs to newspaper articles I didn’t quite understand at the time.
