It’s so nice to meet you.
I’m Alicia-Rae, a Canadian travel journalist, writer, editor, content strategist, and photographer based in Kigali, Rwanda and Vancouver, British Columbia
I’m a storyteller at heart, whether I’m capturing the essence of a destination through editorial, shaping a brand’s voice, crafting compelling copy that resonates, or narrating through my lens. If you need a travel journalist to bring a place to life, an editor to oversee a magazine or project, or a copywriter to create sharp product descriptions, witty social content, or engaging email campaigns—I’ve got you.
While long-form narrative is my passion, I also love coaching writers on brand voice, developing editorial and content strategies, and crafting SEO-driven copy that boosts visibility.
Let’s create something impactful together.
My Services
Travel Editorial Content
As a travel editorial specialist, I craft compelling content that brings destinations to life. I spent four years as editor-in-chief of a branded luxury travel magazine where I oversaw three issues from concept to print, many years managing and specializing in editorial content for lululemon, and extensive experience writing for different magazines, newspapers, blogs, and hospitality brands. I create engaging long- and short-form travel pieces. Storytelling is my passion, and I deliver editorial that captivates, informs, and inspires.
Content and Editorial Strategy
I craft goal-driven content strategies that align with your brand voice, audience, and business objectives. With years of experience managing social media, email marketing, editorial, blogs, websites and PR strategies, I develop tailored, comprehensive content roadmaps that enhance visibility and impact. With a deep understanding of brand positioning, every piece serves a purpose—driving engagement, brand growth, and results.
Copywriting and Editing
With a strong background in travel, fashion, health and wellness, and lifestyle, I craft compelling copy that connects brands with their audience. From brand messaging, style guides, media kits, web content, product descriptions, and campaigns, I help businesses refine their voice and drive engagement. I’ve worked with renowned brands, delivering copy that informs, inspires, and converts.
