When the apron comes off and the crafts are tidied away, you will find me putting pen to paper in all sorts of magical ways.
I enjoy writing about life and all of its weird and wonderful motifs, it brings me so much more than joy; it’s a true form of release.
From stories, blogs, and poems, to translation and other briefs, MGB is a creative freelancer with a special kind of expertise.
-
I have a keen eye for detail when it comes to the written word.
My writing style is unique yet versatile, and above all, I am particularly skilled at adapting it to specific briefs to deliver captivating content.
I have written blogs and content for a miscellany of companies before – both small and large. From writing about sexual health to skincare to culinary & culture, I have a refined approach to finding the perfect voice to allure and enchant any target audience.

While “website services” might sound quite broad yet simultaneously vague, that’s because it is. And that’s where me & my skills come in!
Tech knowledge aside, websites require a lot of time, attention to detail, and patience that not everyone has. It isn’t all too common to have an actual passion for it all and find enjoyment in all the varying aspects like I do.
Whether you’re looking to build a website from scratch, need someone to manage/run/edit/update an existing website, or simply need help with the language and copywriting side of it all – trust that I’m up for the task!
-
Languages are living things — each with its own rhythm, humour, and heart.
I translate between my native languages English, German, and French. Not just word for word, but voice for voice, keeping the meaning intact while letting each language breathe in its own way.
From poetry to prose to professional text, my aim is simple: to make your words feel at home wherever they land.
ALL ABOUT ME
-
My academic journey differs from most, as I was raised bilingually and educated in German in a small town in central Switzerland.
At 15, I spent a year on exchange in Québec, and at 18, I wrote and self-published a food magazine. I graduated secondary school in 2018 with an 80% grade-average across 12 different subjects.
I later moved to the UK to study English Language and Creative Writing at the University of Brighton, taking a Covid-era intermission to work full-time at a start-up before returning to complete my degree a few years later. During my final year at Brighton University, I led the organising committee for a student-run final-year conference, which I also catered. Finally graduating in 2023 with a first-class joint honours degree, I also received an award for my Autoethnographic creative writing dissertation on my experiences with burnout.
