Hi. I’m Raejan—Encourager, Heart-Connector, Editor, and Content Creator!
Growing up, my mom would read over 1,500 pages of stories to me every month. On my own, I read the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy by the time I was 10 years old. With a head full of adventurous tales, my fingers were always ink-stained from scribbling my own stories in notebooks. However, the impact of stories didn’t remain within the confines of my imagination. I came to believe we all tell a story with our lives. I love Jesus and I want to seize the adventure He intends for me to live, but it’s important that my adventure doesn’t just stay on a page.
Throughout my life, I’ve witnessed firsthand how fictional and real-life stories can radically change the trajectory of people’s lives. Now, armed with a B.A. in English, Latin, and Classical Studies, as well as years of working alongside mission-driven leaders, communicators, creators, and organizations, I have the privilege of developing strategies that expand clients’ platforms, refining and cultivating content that impacts audiences, editing full-length manuscripts, representing clients at events, and collaborating with various teams in order to accomplish our goals. I strive to utilize my strengths in writing, editing, and relationship building to create compelling content that inspires, challenges, and equips others, so they can experience the hope Jesus offers, embrace the heroic lives He calls us to live, and, therefore, make an eternal difference in this world.
When I’m not working on an exciting project (with a large mug of coffee or tea in hand), you can find me spending time with my family or friends, traveling our nation, playing a game of pickleball, or exploring local activities and cuisine.

Her Specialties
I’m an encourager and connector at heart, so I am passionate about using my strengths in writing, editing, promoting, and relationship-building on mission-driven projects. I love taking on projects that the Lord can use to change and elevate people’s lives. Some of my favorite opportunities have been coordinating event details and honing communications for an anti-trafficking organization, representing thought-leaders at conferences and events, editing impactful books (like MRP’s Reinvented by Mike Cinelli), and securing grants to help raise awareness for terminal breast cancer.
I enjoy editing clients’ books to help make what they envision into a reality, writing and developing resources that position clients to connect with their audiences, and using my words to motivate and mobilize those around me to fulfill the purpose the Lord has for them.
I graduated from Mercer University with a triple major in English, Latin, and Classical Studies. These three areas of study continued to fuel my existing love for stories and underscored my belief that the words we use can have a world-changing impact. In fact, I believe that our lives become dynamic when we ask ourselves the question: “What story do I want to tell?”
It’s been very surprising how much the current writing industry has changed, particularly with the rise of AI. While we can utilize technology to make our lives better, there are some aspects—like communication, writing, and editing—that require a human touch. We crave deep relationships and authenticity in our lives, and those are things that software can’t replicate. My goal is to infuse every project with connection, engagement, and intentionality.
Her Recent Projects & Experience
Over the past five years, I have served as a Writer, Editor, and Content Strategist. Having contracted with excellent organizations and leaders, such as International Justice Mission, Market Refined Media & Publishing, and Kent Sanders (the Founder of The Profitable Writer), I have had the privilege of successfully helping entrepreneurs, podcasters, authors, and leaders to connect with their audiences, strengthen their processes, and enhance their communication materials.
Most recently, I had the privilege of serving on MRP’s team as the line and copy editor for Mike Cinelli’s book, Reinvented. It was a joy to be a part of stewarding Mike’s story of redemption, and I look forward to partnering with more projects like this one. I have also worked with published-author-to-be Lisa Allen as our MRP team refined her message and prepared her release, Your Confidence Compass, for market (coming soon!).
Her Education & Training
In college, I triple majored in English, Latin, and Classical Studies at Mercer University, honing my communication skills as I studied the stories and themes that have resonated with people’s hearts since ancient times.
Years later, I’m still learning and strengthening my skill set, whether it’s through leadership and communication books, Vanessa Van Edwards’ People School Articles, Masterclasses, conferences like MRM’s Refined Conference and LifeSurge, or Kristin Overly’s SEO Course for Beginners.
Beyond these avenues, I’ve also treasured the personal and professional mentors who have taught and inspired me as I continue to grow and hone my craft. I’m always seeking feedback and I love to learn—whether it’s inside or outside of my field!

My go-to virtual mentors are:

1. I was born fourteen weeks early and I weighed less than 2 pounds.
2. My suitcase is always packed, so that I’m ready to travel anywhere . . . especially somewhere near the ocean.
3. I love dressing up as Wonder Woman for community events and hospital visitations. The children always want to get pictures and hugs—it’s so sweet!
claim to fame
I love to bake but I don’t usually eat what I make. I give it away! I have neighbors who meet me in the driveway at the end of the workday to see if I have goodies available for them.
