Ana has worked in the marketing industry. Her writing skills were a great fit for Emphatic, with whom she worked as a social media marketer for three years. She wrote plenty of copy for various clients, ranging from aspiring politicians to small business owners in the United States and beyond. Her copy was short and sweet but understandable for the average customer or potential customer who comes across an individual's or a business' Facebook, Twitter, or LinkedIn.
