WRITING THE STORIES THAT MATTER
I’m Elena (Elli) - a writer, content creator, and storyteller for purpose-driven brands, changemakers, and wellness leaders who are reshaping systems, closing gender gaps, and making the world fairer, softer, and more sustainable.
Through heart-led content, Q&A’s, health reports and case studies, I amplify voices often overlooked - challenging systemic gaps in health, wellness, and medicine to drive meaningful impact in women’s lives while accelerating gender equality, with clarity and purpose.
“Working with Elli was a smooth and respectful experience from start to finish. The interview felt comfortable and thoughtful, and I appreciated her care in representing my story accurately. From first contact to final publication, she approached my cultural identity with sensitivity and integrity.”

Content Creation
I help you develop SEO content that embodies your company’s values and communicates your message and mission in a way that is purposeful, impactful and productive.
I take a collaborative approach to blog writing where I include quotes and images from relevant sources. This creates sharable social content and is great for PR and business growth.
-
Inclusive Messaging
Positively frame the issues your audience supports and express your brands commitment to diversity, equality, human and animal rights and inclusion.
-
Storytelling for change
Powerful storytelling that connects people to your company’s cause and creates the engagement required for effective action.
“86% of consumers believe that companies should take a stand for social issues and 64% of those who said it’s ‘extremely important’ for a company to take a stand on a social issue said they were ‘very likely’ to purchase a product based on that commitment.”
I’m a freelance writer with a BA in Professional Writing and two master’s degrees - one in Gender, Justine and Society and another in Contemporary Religious Studies, where I focused on existential health and ecofeminist theology.
I bring academic depth and real-world edge to every piece I write. My work has featured in major print and digital outlets across Australia, and I specialise in turning complex ideas into clear, compelling content that resonates.
