Interning as a copywriter for Roots Interns

Enjoyable experience! I got real insight into how copywriting and brand writing works, from SEO research to maintaining a consistent company tone. It’s helped me figure out what is and what isn’t for me! I mainly did writing blogs, learning to use SEO, and writing social media content (mostly Instagram captions). I was most inspired when I first saw my blog published. It made me feel like I contributed to something bigger than myself, so seeing my work on a professional platform was my first big “woah” moment.
