nomad
Writer, travel photographer, nomad.
Hello! I’m Jake: a writer/editor, content strategist, and travel photographer living the digital nomad lifestyle.
With over a decade of writing experience and over 9 years of SaaS support work, I understand how to command attention from users and potential customers, know how to explain complex situations with ease, and actively work to reach new audiences with content that captures and converts.
My travel photography captures the beauty of our natural world, aiming to inspire wonder and encourage others to explore the outdoors while fostering a sense of responsibility for our shared environment.

What I Offer
I write and edit content that sounds like a human… not an AI brand deck. With a decade of bylines, essays, and brand copy across SaaS, editorial, and other spaces, I know how to find a voice and hold it: whether it’s a help doc that actually helps, a blog post that people read, or a long-form piece that sticks. I’m looking for teams that want a writer who can own content end-to-end: from drafting to hitting “publish”.
Artwork+Photos

About
trailwalkr
The wild places we love are changing, and the work to protect them has never been more urgent. I help conservation projects and wild spaces not only succeed, but be seen. By creating captivating content in the field, my work transforms raw data and on-the-ground moments into images, narratives, and more that inspire action and secure support. This isn’t just my career — it’s my way of ensuring the stories of our landscapes are told, remembered, and preserved.
