About Pencil and Palate

Why Pencil and Palate? 

Ever since I could hold a writing utensil, I have written and created content. From stories to essays to poetry, I quickly fell in love with the written word. From there, I acquired the opportunity to travel to parts of the world and explore various forms of artistic expression in my free time.

Sooner rather than later, I grew weary of the daily 8-5 with its rigid structure, micromanagement, and schedule demands. Thus began my journey to freelancing, aka, to freedom. 

2021: I secured my first-ever paid writing gig — amazing!

2023: I gained the traction to finally quit the day job (huzzah!) and dove into freelancing full-time.

Today: I love what I do and the freedom I have to do it.

Additionally, I am a doting dog mom of two and a home chef with gluten-free expertise. I also have written several children’s books that are waiting to be published (or rather, waiting on me to gather the necessary gumption to put them into the world).

As for Pencil and Palate, I am thrilled to have this platform where I can offer freelance writing services to anyone who needs help with their words. It brings me joy to help others reach their goals, and I am grateful to have a useful skillset to offer.  So, feel free to reach out, subscribe, browse the blog, or pitch a project. I look forward to meeting you!
