Max Olarinde

Communications Specialist | Copywriter | Content Lead

United States

Over the years I have grown and progressed as an interdisciplinary communications specialist. Though my greatest strength is in writing, I am no stranger to any side of the media production process.

My college education has helped me master the digital media landscape as it exists today, and I have learned over time how to use my writing effectively in many different disciplines, be it for marketing, advertising or editorial journalism.

My experiences beyond college have been diverse in terms of the work I've produced. I have done everything from interviewing musicians, coordinating, editing, and supervising a weekly written content schedule for two different companies, as well as drafting ads for indie artists and events.

My recent role at Homes.com has conditioned me to think not only as a writer, but to adapt to the engagement-driven SEO economy that molds content and copywriting. I've also been responsible for writing video scripts and shot lists, and coordinating our visual products with video, voiceover and post-production teams.
