Anne John

Senior Copywriter

United Arab Emirates

Passionate about the written word. I am one of those lucky ones for whom work and interests overlap! I play with words for a living and would probably do the same even if I do not have to earn my bread.

Currently, I work as a copywriter with an online marketing company. I enjoy writing and editing lifestyle articles on food, travel, film, books, relationships as well as careers.
