Work With Me

Hi, I'm Colin!
I am a freelance editor, SEO consultant, and ghostwriter with a client list that includes some of the top voices in the personal finance and music industries.
My background is extensive. With more than 20 years of experience in financial services, including 15 as a people manager with a top 10 North American financial institution, I come by my love for personal finance honestly.
I’ve edited or written more than 1000 articles, and my work has been featured in several publications, including Forbes, Edison Financial, Zoocasa, Wallet Hacks, MapleMoney, and more.
