Leah J. Matuson

Writer & Editor, Storyteller, and Journalist

I’m Leah Matuson, an accomplished writer and editor, storyteller, and journalist with 20+ years of experience crafting content across tech, business, creative, legal, and consumer sectors for digital, print, and social.

Writing isn’t just a job for me—it’s a passion, and I can write about anything! As a kid, I wrote as a means of expressing myself, and as a way of understanding the world. As I grew up, I found that writing is how I learn. Now, I educate others through my words, too.

My philosophy is simple: know your subject and your audience. One of my talents is the ability to take complex information and translate disparate data into clear and compelling content. My writing helps readers make sense of complicated ideas while also engaging, educating, and entertaining.

Throughout my career I’ve had the opportunity to collaborate with well-known companies such as Amazon, Cisco, Dell EMC, HPE, Microsoft, Nasuni, and VMware to name a few. Some of the work I’ve performed includes market research, interviewing subject matter experts as well as the general public, working with stakeholders and, of course, writing and editing.

Content includes short pieces and long-form articles, ads, blogs, marketing and sales collateral, scripts, web content, thought leadership pieces, style guides, tech manuals, and processes and procedures. Subjects have included AI, machine learning, Internet of Things (IoT), cybersecurity, networking, and more.

My magazine and newspaper work includes feature articles for both adults and kids on science, history, education, health and wellness, construction, lifestyle trends, and entertainment.

Samples from my portfolio offer you a glimpse of the depth, breadth, and versatility of my writing. You can email me at ljmatuson@gmail.com for inquiries and services.

Testimonials —

“I worked with Leah for 8 years at Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG)/TechTarget. During that time, I always found her to be a highly skilled writer and editor, detail-oriented, passionate about quality, and focused on client needs. In her writing and editing work, she made sure that content was understandable and compelling for the end-user audience.

As an editor of her written output, I knew that when I received content that had been written or co-written by her, I would not have to review it with the same level of scrutiny that I was used to with others, since she had already done much of that work for us. In project engagements, she had a singular focus on client satisfaction, often keeping the team on track to make sure that we met client deadlines. A supportive colleague, Leah is a consummate professional who would be an asset to any team.”

— Kevin Compton, Senior Production Director & Editor, Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG)/TechTarget

“Leah has the unique ability to synthesize complex messages in to a clear, concise value proposition that resonates with the target audience. She understands the questions that need to be asked of subject matter experts in order to deliver effective content in support of the intended objective. I was impressed from the get-go at how quickly she ramped on Courion's messaging and value prop, and she takes direction very well when needed.

Leah produced a high volume of quality content for Courion and does a great job leveraging content across multiple platforms, i.e. white papers, blogs, web content, collateral and more. I highly recommend Leah to create and manage content in a permanent or contract capacity.”

— Rachel Weeks, Director of Global Marketing, Courion Corporation
