Megan Torrance

Copywriter and Graphic Designer

United States

I am a freelance writer and graphic designer. In 2009, I began writing articles for clients on a plethora of different subjects, with a specialization in career topics. Some of my work has been published on Chron.com, GlobalPost and eHow. This niche was driven by my desire to help others find a job they love and feel comfortable in, which goes hand in hand with my work as a job coach for individuals who have intellectual disabilities and autism spectrum disorders. Once I earned my graphic design degree in 2018, I also took on design projects for clients in a variety of fields, from artists to real estate agents.
