If you need some facts, I:

  • Have been working directly with startups since 2015, first as a management consultant and now as a writer

  • Have an annoying knack for spotting consumer trends before they take off

  • Subscribe to the ‘Smart Brevity’ principles but advocate for more voice

  • Helped shape and grow the editorial side of a $4M+/year publication

  • Now specialize in fun, analysis-heavy, curated newsletters (example)

  • Still love creating original, research-heavy editorial pieces (example)

  • Studied genetics, human physiology, and financial analysis

  • Am very awkward in photos so go for the pensive look

  • Believe no writing should be boring. Ever.

  • Am annoyed by the periods in the bullet above
Shân Osborn freelance writer and business journalist

“Our readers pay for a very specific kind of insight, and it's damn near impossible to find writers who can pull it off.

But Shân learned our unique voice quickly, embedded herself into our community, and produces at the absolute highest level. Her work has never been late. I never have to explain anything twice. She's communicative, helpful, fast, and has become a trusted advisor here, guiding our publication and training new team members.

There really are no words for how talented she is.”

- Ethan Brooks, Senior Marketing Manager, The Hustle
