      <h2>Northwest Freelance Writer <br></h2>
      <p>Hi, I'm Joanna, a Pacific Northwest freelance journalist and content marketing writer based in Bellingham, Wash. My focus is personal finance, higher education, parenting, and aging -- with a deep-dive niche in all things college for
        families: saving for it, paying for it, applying, financial aid, gap years, student social/emotional development, and campus services.</p>
      <p>I've also covered insurance, health forms, teens establishing credit, and education tax breaks. My byline has appeared in Real Simple, Money Magazine, Washington Post, US News, The Week, Work + Money, and many more. You can learn more about
        my content marketing clients on my Services page. Check out some of my recent stuff below.</p>

JOANNA NESBIT, FREELANCE WRITER




NORTHWEST FREELANCE WRITER


Hi, I'm Joanna, a Pacific Northwest freelance journalist and content marketing
writer based in Bellingham, Wash. My focus is personal finance, higher
education, parenting, and aging -- with a deep-dive niche in all things college
for families: saving for it, paying for it, applying, financial aid, gap years,
student social/emotional development, and campus services.

I've also covered insurance, health forms, teens establishing credit, and
education tax breaks. My byline has appeared in Real Simple, Money Magazine,
Washington Post, US News, The Week, Work + Money, and many more. You can learn
more about my content marketing clients on my Services page. Check out some of
my recent stuff below.

 

Recent work:

My latest for Money:

4 Myths About College Scholarships That Could Cost You (Feb. 2023)

HerMoney Media:

I write personal finance stuff for HerMoney but haven't gotten them uploaded yet
-- here's a list for you to check out.



You can always find my latest work on my Contently profile, too. Have a look
there.
