Skip the diet. Change your life instead.

Are you in need of a writer? I would love to work with you!

I'm a writer with over 10 years of experience as a news reporter, public relations writing specialist, blogger and content creator.

I graduated from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in 2005 with a degree in news-editorial from the College of Journalism.

From 2007 to 2013, I worked as a news reporter for the Kearney Hub in Kearney, NE. I covered the education beat, which meant I was responsible for reporting on news from the local university, community college, public schools, parochial schools, and school boards. 

I started my wellness blog, Sweet Success, in 2011. I write blog posts focusing on Intuitive Eating, body acceptance, body image, weight stigma, yoga and mindfulness. I write all of the social media content for Sweet Success Health Coaching on Facebook and Instagram, and I wrote all of the website copy on sweetsuccessbysara.com.

From 2013 to 2017, I worked as a writing specialist for the University of Nebraska at Kearney. I was responsible for writing and editing news releases, news features and website copy. 

I currently work as a content creator and copywriter for Nebraska Methodist College. I write blog posts, social media posts, marketing emails, copy for marketing materials and press releases.
