Misao McGregor

Writer, Editor & Content Manager

United States

As a Writer & Content Manager with two years of SEO experience and over six years of professional writing experience, I have worked with clients ranging in fields from skincare, beauty, health & wellness, corporate entertainment, CBD, natural cosmetics, and more.

I have also spent the last three years organizing and facilitating a community blog, Sacrosanct Collective, which amplifies the voices and art of LGBTQ2IA+ BIPOC in an effort to uplift marginalized voices in mainstream media and promote mutual aid initiatives that support our community’s most vulnerable. During my time as Founder, I have been privileged to collaborate with over two hundred different LGBTQ2IA+ BIPOC across a wide array of specialized fields while establishing a tight-knit digital community and online presence.

With a background in theater and playwriting, my writing style is direct, easy to digest, and focuses on developing a meaningful connection with the reader. In addition to blog writing and editing, I also have extensive experience in academic AP-style writing with proficiency in MLA, APA, and Chicago formats.

As a queer, non-binary, mixed-race, second-generation Japanese American, I am passionate about giving a voice to marginalized communities while humanizing those who have been dehumanized.
