Hi, I’m Steffi, a Swiss-based freelance copywriter and storyteller with a love for beauty, lifestyle and brands. I’ve collaborated with retailers and publishers like Jelmoli, Coop, Estée Lauder and Prestige Magazine, and I run Hey Pretty, a Swiss beauty blog with thousands of monthly readers. I craft engaging copy, translate content, and help brands connect with their audience through authentic storytelling and thoughtful content creation. When I’m not writing, I host and edit content for radio and video, and I enjoy collaborating with clients to develop campaigns that feel inspiring and true to a brand. I’m passionate about delivering high-quality, on-brand content that resonates with audiences and drives engagement.
