Hello, Upwork Community!

My name is Ken, and I own a small retail mattress store. I LOVE what I do, but there is no denying that there is quite a substantial amount of downtime. There is only a certain amount of time that can be allocated to marketing and research while waiting for customers, and rather than reading, playing video games, or some other activity to pass the time, I decided to make some passive income by freelancing here.

I am in Greensboro, NC, and the weather is finally warming up enough that I found it appropriate to put my hummingbird feeders back up, one of my son's favorite things to watch! My son is the true motivation behind wanting to make my business succeed and my participation here; that little man lights up my life. I would love to proofread and edit papers from middle school through undergrad, which has always been my strongest skill. In my childhood, I even found errors written in Harry Potter! 

I hope to learn alongside you, make money, and help our clientele grow!

Hello all, I'm Jf (Annette) from Singapore. I joined Upwork couple years ago but wasn't really active but now I'm back and excited to take on more projects here. I've 3 years experience as an Innovation Specialist cum Business Analyst. Hoping to pick up from fellow freelancers how to "sell" yourselves, especially if you're successfully picking up projects which may not be related to your main bread and butter experiences i.e. I really want to do translation work but what's a good strategy to sell my capabilities. And of course to hear from other experienced members about their journey with Upwork!

One of my current inspirational character is Dory from Finding Nemo/Dory! All I can say is that "just keep swimming" is something I'm currently doing 🙂 Thanks for reading this everyone~
