Communication and journalism

Heilimo Creative helps companies plan their communications and build communication strategies so that every publication supports their brand and business. I produce communication content for various media, from articles to text editing and language maintenance. 

I am also a multi-talented journalist and have worked on the conceptualization of an exceptionally large number of magazines. I handle interviews, expert articles, personal stories, product columns, editing, and proofreading for both general and specialized publications as well as customer magazines. 

My special expertise covers nutrition, health, and wellness topics, but I am happy to tackle a wide range of subjects. I love digging through research results and creating content that offers concrete benefits to readers. I produce website content and digital articles that are search engine optimized and easy to find.

"I'm at my best in holistic content production, where I can combine my thirst for knowledge with journalistic storytelling. I particularly excel at packaging content - I can sketch out the visual structure of a story and what it will look like when it's finished, even at the writing stage."

"As a visual journalist, I have always been involved in shaping the structure of the publication's content, along with the textual and design details that make the material readable and easy to understand. This has sparked my passion for writing and editing as well."
