A hashtag was invented to capture the spirit of our mission: #copythatcuts. More than a catchy string of words, it embodies a writing style that infuses honesty & frankness with empathic messaging. The kind that advances your brand’s marketing and communications goals.
Minus the fluff.
Hi, I’m Nadia
Founder + Marketing Writer
Born and raised in vibrant Montréal, I’m passionate about helping businesses communicate with precision, a human voice, and just the right amount of punch.
Over the course of my career, I’ve produced content for a variety of sectors and industries, including mental health, healthcare, and B2B SaaS, shaping everything from web copy to speeches to blog posts. The outcome? An adaptable, industry-agnostic marketer who can quickly grasp the big picture, but also, your customers’ hopes, needs, and biggest irritants.
With an academic background in both psychology and public policy, I bring strong research skills and a multidisciplinary lens to the practice of content marketing. That foundation—paired with hands-on experience working within high impact marketing teams—has influenced my creative approach. To that end, I value asking thoughtful questions, distilling complexity, and writing from a place of empathy.
Ultimately, I believe that great content isn’t just about finding the right words. It’s about helping people feel seen and understood. It’s about achieving resonance…
I’d love to learn more about your work and how I can help bring your message to life.

Simile
What’s in a name?
Originating from the Latin word similis, simile is a figure of speech that expresses the likeness or resemblance of two seemingly dissimilar things…
A powerful literary device in its own right, simile uses constructs such as like or as to unify disparate terms, thereby acting as a bridge.
Rida Mortada, B. Eng - Head of Business Development, MEDILab
“We had the pleasure of working with Simile for the development of Medilab.com. From the outset, Nadia took the time to deeply understand what we do, in order to deliver our message in the most clear and reader-friendly way possible. Her commitment to truly grasping our mission, values, audience, and the intricate details of our services was evident from our very first meeting.”
Pavle Marinković - Writer and Audio Branding Consultant
“She was always kind with her suggestions, never imposing, and whenever I was stuck, she provided feasible options to move forward.
I remember being exhausted from the editing, but Nadia kept going, bringing energy and motivation for both of us. Without her, I wouldn’t have published my book; she was instrumental to its completion.”
PHILOSOPHY.
Because words shape worlds and incite people to action, the content marketers of our era have become powerful 'agents of culture’.
