Freelance Writer Jess Sims – I cover Plus Size Fashion, Culture, Entertainment, Health & Wellness

Hello! Thank you for looking at my freelance portfolio. I am an extremely passionate freelance writer, I cover all topics that intersect the experience of Black women in fashion, health and life I have a particular soft spot for issues related to being a fat, black woman, such as: fat phobia, plus size fashion, and discrimination in the fashion and beauty industries, healthcare discrimination, and body positivity. I am also always looking for ways to explore corporate culture through the lens of black women and how we express culture.

I am absolutely passionate about ALL writing and I believe we can work well together. I have almost a decade of experience in public relations and digital marketing, where I wrote everything from branded blog posts to executive level feature-length essays and articles for clients. I have experience creating SEO-driven narratives across multiple industries and can write, with enthusiasm, about just about anything.

Shoot me an email and we can work together: jess@aneutrallife.com
