Amy Wilde is an Austin-based writer and editor for hire. She works with magazines, blogs, and brands to tell the stories of places that inspire conversation, products that spark curiosity, projects that stimulate progress, and people who move the world forward.

Able to both purposefully connect brands with their audiences and engage readers through immersive storytelling, Amy’s writing and editing skills have been put to good use by Fortune 50 companies, tech startups, nonprofit organizations, legacy media outlets, and brands of all sizes and stripes.

Clients past and present include Google (via EnVeritas Group), Kantar, Hilton Hotels, Barclays, Marriott Bonvoy, General Motors, Morgan Stanley, InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG), Dr Pepper Snapple Group, JDE Peet’s (Tea Forté, L’OR), Wanderlust Festivals, Trivago, and Impact Hub. Her byline can be found at Lonely Planet, USA TODAY Travel, Refinery29, The Hairpin, The Huffington Post, Brit + Co, DAME, She Shreds, and more. She’s currently working on a book exploring the inextricable bonds of scent and memory.

Making a habit of cultivating lasting relationships with a broad range of collaborators, Amy’s clients often stick around long after the original agreement has run its course. A ten-year stint in public relations preceded her freelance writing career, lending nuance to her approach. She's spent a good deal of time on both sides of the pitch. She's been an agent and a client, a contributor and an editor. From the moment she won her first spelling bee as a kid to the creative work she tackles today, her love of language has transformed ordinary projects into extraordinary exercises in wordplay. She loves big ideas and tiny details, and her ability to make them sing is notable.

More than anything, though, she was put here to write. Ask anyone with whom she's worked and they'll tell you the same.
