Hi! My name is, LaCresha Kolba and I am a freelance copywriter, writer, and blogger. If I had my choice I would have an epic outdoor office that would not cause glare on my laptop. Alas, if I am not out hiking, kayaking, or rock climbing, I am behind my laptop working to make my dreams and goals into a reality. 

What will you find on this website?

My stories that I enjoy crafting and writing. In my pursuit of travel writing I kept asking myself, ‘What makes a community special?’ It isn’t just that hip restaurant you find listed on a local tourism website. It’s the people. I want the stories that speak to me that I hope will interest you.

I remember when I was little I would walk around the farm I grew up on with a pad of paper and a pencil. I wrote stories about the grass, the cows, and the sky. I dreamed of being a writer, but I had no idea how to get there.

Never would I have imagined I would find my way to Tennessee where I would also find way into photography and writing. As a Marketing/Sales/Event Manager for the Show Place Arena in Memphis, TN, I photographed events and wrote copy for the website, emails, newsletters, and documents for board meetings. During my time in Memphis, I was introduced to tribal belly dance. It was in those dance classes a fellow dancer announced she got a book deal and would be a published author. She gave me my first bit of advice to chase this dream of mine.

It wasn’t until I was in Nashville that I was introduced to my first writing mentor. Her guidance and mentorship helped me get my first journalism opportunity with a regional equine publication. I wanted to learn more and I wanted to thrive in this writing world. This is where I began to take writing courses and attend conferences. It was also in Nashville, where I began to write website content, newsletters, and email sequences for a music store. This is where I discovered how copywriting could help a business thrive.

In 2022 I completed the 8-week Copy Posse Launch Pad course by Alex Cattoni. I attended The Copywriter Club In Real Life Copywriter Conference in Nashville, in March of 2022. Now I work freelance with businesses writing their email sequences, newsletters, blogs, sales pages, and landing pages. 

When I am not behind my laptop, I seek the outdoors with my dog. Currently working on personal travel writing projects.
