Claudia in a few words
Hello!

I am a teacher turned journalist, writer and editor with a passion for education, science and research.

I worked for several years as a staff journalist for news outlets in the education and international education sector. Since going freelance in 2021, I have been working with several clients as a copywriter, editor and feature writer.

As a writer, I am at home writing anything from short articles and listicles to long-read features, research reports, or press releases.

As an editor, I love working with writers to help them achieve their best results.

I have experience conducting research, gained during my MSc in Educational Neuroscience, and extensive experience with data analysis, gained both during my MSc and in my job as a data journalist.
