Introduction: Welcome! My name is Sydney. I'm a television writer with 10 years of professional writing and editing experience. I received my Bachelor's Degree in Cinema Studies with a minor in Screenwriting at USC's School of Cinematic Arts, graduating Cum Laude in 2016. My first job out of college was at United Talent Agency where I was a Partner's Assistant in the Television Literary Department. After a year and a half at UTA, I worked as a Writers' PA, Showrunner's Assistant, Writers' Assistant, and (currently) Script Coordinator at companies like Netflix, HBO, Amazon, and (currently) Hulu. I also interned at the following throughout my college career: Universal Studios, Lionsgate Entertainment, TBS/TNT, and Sony Comedy Television. Aside from working at my current job, I've been adding to my writing portfolio and have also started a podcast! That all being said, l have tons of experience working in media, writing, and entertainment. I'm happy and excited to assist you in your professional/personal writing endeavors!

I was very satisfied with Sydney's editorial work. She responded quickly and greatly improved my wedding speech draft. Her attention to detail and insightful suggestions made my speech more polished. I highly recommend her services.

I am writing a novel, and the story happens in a foreign country. She is excellent in translating foreign idioms into English language. She always provides complete and flawless writing materials, and she is always on time. I am very happy that I work with her.

Sydney was fantastic to work with! I’m comfortable writing speeches myself but wanted to finesse a maid of honor speech and Sydney helped me do exactly that. She did a great job of adding and smoothing parts while mirroring my tone and helped me add a few jokes and transitions. Sydney was very responsive, reasonable, clear, and made a stressful speech much easier. Thank you!!

Prompt Service and Trustworthy. Sydney is the best, confident and professional. I couldn’t be happier with the results, from start to finish. Everything is beyond my expectations- she even completed the part of what I should be doing, without feeling hesitant when I asked. That was an extra work for her- I’m so thankful for that. I appreciate her hard work and the customer service she provided me. Sydney has helped me with the Go-Fund-Me project. She made it possible and easy for me. All I did was to provide the information she needed. By just talking to her, you can tell she has that “can-do” attitude. I highly recommend her😃
