Olivia James

I am a freelance journalist and content writer reporting on travel, health and wellness, and international development.

As a content writer, I assist with developing relatable and engaging brand voices for companies, helping them connect authentically with their audiences. I offer SEO-optimized blog posts, deeply researched articles, and case studies. I love creating engaging stories that resonate with diverse audiences, and I bring an insightful perspective to every piece I write.

Having spent much of my life traveling and living outside my home country of the US, I have a passion for sharing stories about how social and political events affect the lives of everyday people around the globe. You can read more on my Substack, where I explore these themes through personal stories and investigative reporting: https://olivia27james.substack.com/

I also have an interest in sustainable food systems, regenerative agriculture, and nutrition. This has led me to volunteer on organic farms and holistic centers across India, Ecuador, and Colombia.

My travels have allowed me to reach fluency in Spanish. I enjoy writing in both English and Spanish.
