About Me

Rehana Akter

Hello, I’m Rehana. I have a grad degree in English Literature, which opens plenty of doors — teaching, corporate jobs, the standard career ladder. I just wasn’t interested in climbing it. Freelancing felt like a better fit, so that’s what I did.

That was a while ago. Since then, I’ve worked with startups trying to explain their product without sounding like a manual, solopreneurs building their first website, and agencies juggling multiple brands at once.

Blogs, landing pages, tutorials, product guides — I’ve written most formats at this point. Some projects need SEO-focused articles that rank. Others need copy that converts. Some just need someone to make complicated things sound less complicated. I figure out which one you need and write accordingly.

When I’m not working, I’m reading, hunting down crime thriller shows with impossible plot twists, or convincing myself that a 20-minute nap is a reasonable life choice at 3 PM.
