Leah Allen-Manning

Bookworm, writer, and mom

I’m a creative and strategic writer, editor, and marketing professional with 11 years of experience developing content and campaigns for mission-driven companies, consulting firms, and nonprofits. My work has spanned blogs, gated content, email marketing, SEO/AEO, social media, product messaging, editorial strategy, and integrated campaigns.

Writing and editing are at the heart of what I do, and I thrive on building systems and processes to deliver consistent, quality work. I have my bachelor’s degree in English from Saint Michael’s College, and you can find me reading and writing for pleasure in my spare time. I’m a lifelong learner and child of teachers, so working in the K-12 education space has been very gratifying.

I live in central Massachusetts with my husband, daughters, and cats. You can find me at the local library, biking my kids to school, and sewing myself a new wardrobe. I’m an advocate for many social justice causes, including but not limited to literacy, pedestrian-friendly infrastructure, birth justice, equitable parental leave, and sustainability.

After many years as a content marketing manager and editor, I am currently a freelance writer open to new clients (and full-time roles for the right opportunity). Current clients include the business consulting firm Vantage Partners and edtech companies Panorama Education, EPS Learning, and Wayground.
