Partner with a freelance writer, data journalist, and Certified Financial Education Instructor (CFEI®) who brings over a decade of experience helping consumer-facing companies and national publications build credibility through strategic content.
As a financial literacy professional, I turn high-stakes consumer topics like mortgages, credit and debt management, warranties and insurance, retirement planning, and investing into content that’s clear, compliant, and engaging.
Sharon is incredible. I've worked with her on many stories and would consider her in the top 1% of all writers. Definitely work with her!
Sharon's articles are well-written and thoroughly researched, and she is able to educate readers in a way that is approachable to everyone. Her content is performing very well for us.
"In the age of AI, when it's so easy to just 10x the output of bad content, Sharon is putting out informative guides that actually help the average person wrap their head around tricky topics."
What truly sets Sharon apart is her perfect blend of technical accuracy and engaging writing style when tackling sometimes boring/bland topics.
Sharon perfectly executes the brief every time, is surprisingly quick (without losing quality), and is always responsive.
Sharon has tons of energy and attention to detail and truly works with you as a partner.
Consumers turn to your site to make informed decisions. I write clean, in-depth resources that help them understand your product or industry, so they trust you enough to buy or sign up.
Whether you need timely news articles, informative guides, product reviews, or comparison and best-of content, I'll deliver polished, publication-ready writing every time.
Publishing content online regularly is the best way to build credibility. As your ghostwriter, I'll turn your ideas and expertise into thought leadership that reads like you wrote it yourself.
Give me a dataset and I'll turn it into a story that earns press pickup and links back to your site. I build the narrative, verify every stat, and shape it for editors looking for something citable.
I back every piece with authoritative sources, whether that means interviewing subject matter experts, researching primary data, or applying my own CFEI® expertise. Every fact is verified, so you can count on accuracy.
I help you stand out from the crowd of generic content by writing readable, resonant copy. No need to worry about AI detectors (they're not reliable, anyway) — my work captures nuances that machines can't replicate.
I write content built to rank in traditional search and get cited by AI tools like Google's AI Overviews. That means clear structure, strategic keywords, and facts presented in a way that search engines can pull and quote.
With over a decade of experience in content writing, I’ve honed a process that makes working with me as smooth as collaborating with an in-house writer.
The results I’ve created with my partners and collaborators speak for themselves — see what they’ve said:
I've worked with Sharon on several data-driven PR stories, and I always appreciate how quickly she can take a complicated topic and turn it into a story that's clear, insightful, and even fun to read. She's especially great at writing about financial topics in a way that doesn't overwhelm the reader or lose the nuance behind the data. She's also someone I know I can count on. Sharon is responsive, takes feedback well, and consistently turns around clean copy, even when we're working with a tight deadline. She makes the editing process easy, which is something I really value in a freelance writer. I've loved working with her and would recommend her without hesitation.
Sharon blends sharp research, clear structure, and a modern, human voice that matches brand tone effortlessly. She’s reliable, communicates proactively, and consistently delivers clean, publish-ready drafts ahead of schedule. Sharon doesn’t just write, she understands audience intent and SEO, turning briefs into articles that educate, engage, and convert. If you need a dependable partner who can own a content brief end-to-end and elevate your editorial standards, Sharon is that person.
Sharon's writing consistently sets the standard for our content team, and I've shared her work with other editors to use as a benchmark for all freelance writers to aspire to. She produces concise, informative content well-attuned to our tone/voice. Sharon excels at making her editor's job easy. She frequently completes projects ahead of schedule, delivering high-quality work that requires few revisions. Yet, she is graciously receptive to feedback, embodying a spirit of continuous improvement. I also appreciate Sharon's organization and responsiveness in our field. She is quick to request anything that can assist her in boosting the quality of her story. I've thoroughly enjoyed collaborating with Sharon and look forward to continuing our professional relationship.
Working with Sharon on our home services content has been a stellar experience. She consistently delivers top-notch work that needs minimal revision. Her articles stand out with multiple original expert insights — a testament to her dedication to depth and quality. When minor tweaks are needed, Sharon addresses them quickly and efficiently. Sharon’s ability to tackle new subjects with ease and minimal guidance sets her apart. Her proactive approach and excellent follow-up elevate her from a writer to a truly valuable partner.
Few remote freelancers fit so seamlessly with a business that it feels like they’re in the office with you—but that’s one of Sharon's best qualities. I hired Sharon to write highly specialized articles for my company, and she immediately made a direct impact both on our processes and on the quality of our content. She flawlessly adopted our voice and tone, while setting the tone for how hands-on testing shines through in our work. She has also shown herself to be remarkably efficient and has consistently outstripped deadlines. But even though she makes quick work of things, it has never taken away from the thoroughness, authenticity, or quality of her work. I can’t say enough about her talent, versatility, and communication, and I would highly recommend her to create content that will surpass your expectations.
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Sharon on several articles, and she is truly an exceptional journalist. Sharon approaches every topic with curiosity and depth, asking thoughtful questions that lead to well-crafted, engaging pieces. She takes the time to fully understand the subject matter, ensuring her articles are accurate, clear, and easy for readers to follow. I also appreciate her commitment to balanced, unbiased reporting; a quality that really sets her apart. Collaborating with Sharon is always a great experience, and I look forward to working with her again.
Working with Sharon is a breeze! A true professional when partnering with her in any capacity, whether that be serving as a source for one of her expertly written articles for a major news outlet or working with her to craft content for our company, Sharon always knocks it out of the park. If you're looking for a freelance writer/journalist to author top-notch content and be an amazing partner while doing it, look no further! I recommend Sharon without reservation.

Hi! I’m Sharon — but my friends call me Share (short for Share Bear, the purple Care Bear).
I started my career as a freelance writer after graduating from college in 2013. It all began in the UGC space, where I created sponsored blogs and social posts.
In 2022, I pivoted to write for leading media outlets, including AARP, CBS News, and USA TODAY. I combine my research skills with expertise from SMEs to create helpful, authoritative content.
Today, I also produce learning center articles and resources for consumer-facing companies.
When not writing, I enjoy collecting Labubus, jamming out to One Direction in my convertible, and hanging out at the beach with my fiancé and two pugs in Encinitas, California.
I hold a B.A. in Communications from the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) and earned my Certified Financial Education Instructor℠ (CFEI®) credential in June 2025.

Barketing Manager
I primarily work with content teams writing YMYL ("Your Money or Your Life") SEO articles, buying guides, and data stories. Clients include financial firms, home services companies, and national publications.
Though I specialize in personal finance topics, I'm adaptable and cover various niches. Please see my portfolio to get a better idea of what I can do for you.
Project rates vary depending on your goals, the scope of work, and whether you need ghostwriting.
Currently, I'm only onboarding prospects needing ongoing content writing support with a $2,500 minimum monthly budget.
We'll agree on a scope of work based on your needs before beginning our first project.
If you have a strong vision for a piece, please be as specific as possible in the writer's brief for best results.
Up to 1 reasonable revision is included.
It does NOT include pre-approved outlines, graphics and images, phone interviews, or rewrites, unless discussed and agreed upon.
Yes, I can complete a paid test piece at my usual rate before we sign a contract and commit to a longer-term partnership.
Each project is different and may need more or less time to complete. I'll give you a ballpark delivery timeline after becoming familiar with your expectations and the scope of work.
My clients say I'm notorious for outstripping deadlines... so take what you will with that 😉
I'm quickest to reply via email (and project management tools like Trello/Asana) on weekdays from 9 am to 5 pm PST.
For article revisions, please indicate requests in the Google Doc so I can see exactly what needs my attention.
My clients enjoy working with me because I need little to no handholding.
But I still need the following from you to ensure a smooth process:
1. A detailed, realistic, and well-organized project brief to help me meet your needs and expectations
2. An installment to block off time in my schedule and begin the project
3. Quick responses to all correspondences (within 2 business days unless otherwise discussed)
I accept payment through 2 channel types:
1. Your preferred ACH payment processor: I can provide banking details for you to pay via Bill.com, Gusto, Ramp, or similar platforms.
2. Stripe: If you pay this way, I'll add the transaction fee to the invoice.
