Long Business Description

Your business has a story - all it needs is the right person to tell it.

That’s why you need a wordsmith. Someone who can step in, craft the exact turns of phrase and put the best words in the right order to smash your business goals out of the park.

Wordsmith By DK was founded for exactly that purpose. My name’s Danielle, I’m an award-winning neurodivergent journalist and communications specialist. I’ve spent more than ten years dealing with the intricacies of finding the right words for the job. Now, I’m sharing that skill with you. Specialising in disability and neurodivergence, I bring an inclusive lens to my work. With experience perfecting communications in corporates, not for profits, tertiary institutions and government, I’ve got the know-how to make you the go-to in your field. Whether you’ve got a press release that needs writing, an audio story to cut and script, a speech to draft for that all-important gig, or social media pages that need filling, I can help. Unsure how to put your business out there? Let me tailor a bespoke communications strategy to support your business goals. By combining my journalistic experience and communications expertise, I can take the stress out of media relations and comms for you - and get you the airtime you need.

But wait, there's more!

I'm also an engaging and confident public speaker. I've had the privilege of sharing my knowledge of media literacy and disability representation and inclusion with classrooms, businesses and community groups around Victoria. If that sounds like something you need, get in touch and let's work something out - while I can't promise you steak knives, you can be sure I'll deliver an evidence-based, curriculum-focused, context-appropriate presentation, rooted in real-life and lived experience that won't put the audience to sleep.
