Hi, I'm Dara Brewton, a freelance writer/editor with a track record of AP-style editing, content creation, and project management for media campaigns. I’ve produced blogs, articles, social media copy, and press releases for outlets like Insider, PopSugar, and Newsweek, and I’ve led editorial teams to ensure accuracy, tone, and on-time delivery. I also collaborate with national PR firms on grant management and fundraising campaigns, and I’ve supported art galleries with press materials and event storytelling (including projects around COP15 in 2022). In recent roles I built systems to track grant deliverables, prepared quarterly reports for federal grants, and prepared budgets and timelines for proposals. I thrive in fast-paced settings, communicate clearly, and enjoy turning complex information into engaging, accessible content. I am currently part of a fundraising consult team for a national non-profit (2025) and continue to manage editorial and digital projects on a freelance basis.
