Annie Roos

I'm an efficient, well-rounded copy and creative content writer with a knack for sculpting the perfect sentence. I take on each brand's voice and vision as my own, crafting compelling copy for email campaigns, website marketing, product descriptions, and more.

Since earning my English degree at the University of California, Davis, I've been lucky enough to write full-time about shoes, clothing, and all things fashion as a copywriter for both Lulu's and Charlotte Russe. As a freelancer, I've explored the realms of wifi technology, luxury organic home goods, and even a little dog fashion. The entirety of my career has been spent in the eCommerce space, weaving tales of high heels and GOTS-certified organic sheets that sell themselves, thanks to SEO-rich product descriptions and keyword-loaded metadata. My track record of increased organic searchability proves that I can balance quality storytelling with SEO data that sells.

I've also written blogs on a variety of topics that range from street art and trend alerts to celebrity news and runway fashion. In addition to my creative articles and product descriptions, I have been known to collaborate on social media posts, emails, metadata, and merchandising.
