Patricia Staino

Storyteller. Content Creator. Editorial Pro.

United States

I'm a creative storyteller experienced in writing and editing long-form articles, blogs, newsletters, thought leadership POVs, and case studies, primarily for the B2B tech space. I love brainstorming new ways of telling a story—there are no old plots, only twists that haven’t been explored yet. My superpower is finding the undiscovered nugget of the story and polishing it until it’s golden. I am deadline-driven, passionate about storytelling, and try to bring a little bit of fun to every project.
