About Me
Hi, I’m Stephanie — a copywriter and content strategist with a passion for storytelling that connects and converts.
I'm an experienced SEO Copywriter and Content Strategist with 7+ years of experience developing and optimizing digital content across the finance, travel, outdoor, and sustainability sectors. My work sits at the intersection of editorial storytelling and search performance, with a strong track record of helping mission-driven brands grow their organic presence and connect with key audiences.
I have led SEO-driven content initiatives for companies such as The Points Guy, Fora Travel, and The Critical Ecosystem Partnership Fund, translating complex topics—ranging from personal finance and credit cards to responsible tourism and conservation—into clear, actionable, and engaging content. My writing has improved keyword rankings, driven traffic growth, and supported broader brand and product goals.
My cross-functional experience includes collaborating with product, design, and marketing teams to execute content strategies rooted in data and aligned with brand voice. I combine deep research, strong editorial instincts, and SEO expertise to deliver content that performs.
When I’m not writing, I’m probably hiking, practicing Spanish, or planning my next adventure — sometimes all at once.

Best no foreign transaction fee credit cards - The Points Guy

How to choose a no-foreign-transaction-fee credit card - The Points Guy
If you're a frequent traveler, you might be familiar with foreign transaction fees — and how they can add up, making every purchase more expensive.
