When you hire a health and wellness writer, you need more than someone who can put words together well. You need someone who can handle sensitive topics responsibly, understand regulated environments, and translate complex information into clear, accurate, and genuinely useful content.
I’ve spent years creating health and wellness content for brands, agencies, pharmacies, and patient-focused organisations that need accurate information communicated clearly and responsibly.
Certificates and Competencies
In health, wellness, and medical content, accuracy is only one part of the picture. Strong content also needs to be accessible, empathetic, audience-aware, and appropriate for the platform and purpose.
My qualifications and certifications support the way I work every day: helping me create content that is informed, responsible, and written with real people in mind.
PIF Tick
I am PIF TICK Certified through the Patient Information Forum (PIF), the UK’s independent membership body for people working in health information and support.
The PIF TICK is the UK’s trusted quality mark for health information. It is designed to show that health content meets high standards for accuracy, clarity, evidence use, accessibility, and user focus.
Holding this certification reflects my commitment to producing health content that is not only well written but also genuinely useful and responsible.
This is particularly valuable for clients who need content that supports informed decision-making, patient understanding, and public trust.
RankSuite
I also hold certifications from RankSuite, covering key areas of SEO and content strategy.
These certifications support my ability to:
- Write content that performs well in search as well as reads well
- Structure articles for readability and engagement
- Balance keyword strategy with natural, human-first writing
- Optimise content without compromising accuracy or tone
For clients, this means content that not only informs and builds trust but also supports visibility and long-term organic growth.
Professional Memberships
I believe professional memberships are essential for staying current, maintaining high standards, and remaining connected to the wider health and content writing community.
Member of the American Medical Writers Association (AMWA)
I am a member of the American Medical Writers Association (AMWA), a leading professional body for medical communicators.
This membership reflects my ongoing commitment to:
- Staying up to date with best practices in medical writing
- Engaging with a global community of health communicators
- Continuing professional development in regulated and scientific content
Member of the Female Copywriters Alliance
I am also part of the Female Copywriters Alliance, a collaborative community of women writers focused on support, skill-sharing, and raising standards across the industry.
My involvement reflects my belief that strong content doesn’t happen in isolation. Being part of an active professional network allows me to:
- Stay connected to evolving trends in content and copywriting
- Exchange ideas and insights with other experienced writers
- Continuously refine my approach to tone, messaging, and audience engagement
It also speaks to the way I work more broadly: collaborative, open to feedback, and committed to producing the best possible outcome for every client.
Academic Background
BA(Hons) in English
I hold a degree in English, which underpins the way I approach structure, tone, and clarity in every piece of content I write.
This foundation supports:
- Strong narrative flow and readability
- Clear, precise communication
- Adaptability across different audiences and formats
In health writing, this is particularly important because even the most accurate information needs to be communicated in a way people can actually understand and engage with.
AMWA Continued Professional Development
Through my membership with the American Medical Writers Association (AMWA), I have completed professional development certificates to continue strengthening my knowledge of medical communication and health content best practices.
These certificates support my understanding of areas such as:
- Writing clearly and responsibly about health topics
- Communicating complex medical information to different audiences
- Best practices in medical and healthcare communication
- Accuracy, structure, and professionalism in health writing
Completing ongoing training through AMWA reflects my commitment to continuous professional development and maintaining high standards within my work.
In a field where guidance, regulations, and audience expectations continue to evolve, I believe it’s important to keep learning and refining my skills so I can provide clients with content that is accurate, accessible, and trustworthy.
Further Study with the Centre of Excellence
Alongside my degree, I’ve completed additional studies at the Centre of Excellence, expanding my knowledge across writing, health, wellness, and related subjects.
These courses have allowed me to strengthen both my understanding of health topics and the way I communicate them to different audiences. My studies have included areas such as pharmacology, proofreading and editing, wellness, and behavioural health, helping me develop a broader and more informed perspective when approaching sensitive or complex content.
I believe ongoing learning is especially important in the health and wellness space, where conversations, guidance, and audience expectations are constantly evolving. Continuing professional development helps me ensure my work remains accurate, relevant, and aligned with current thinking.
This ongoing learning allows me to:
- Deepen my understanding of health and wellbeing topics
- Approach content with greater context and nuance
- Strengthen my research and editorial skills
- Stay aligned with evolving conversations in the wellness space
- Create content that balances accessibility, empathy, and accuracy
Professional Experience
Alongside formal qualifications and certifications, I bring extensive hands-on experience writing across the health, wellness, and medical space. My work has supported both direct-to-consumer health brands and agencies working within regulated healthcare environments, giving me experience adapting content for different audiences, tone requirements, and approval processes.
Over the years, I’ve worked on content including:
- Evidence-based blog articles
- Patient information content
- Pharmacy and treatment pages
- Health campaign content
- Website and landing page copy
- Thought leadership articles
- Condition awareness content
- Medication and product information based on PILs and SmPCs
This practical experience has given me a strong understanding of how to balance clarity, accuracy, tone, and compliance across different types of health content.

- Women’s health
- Mental health
- General wellness
- Skincare and dermatology
- Pharmacy and prescription treatment content
