Bio
Marianne Long
It was an absolute pleasure to have Jared working with us in between his degrees. He was always hard-working and took a proactive approach to both writing and digital marketing. We tasked him with writing a huge range of material from advertorials to articles and community content both for print and online. He was creative, thoughtful, had great attention to detail and coped admirably with the pressure of working in a small publishing house. A joy to work with!
