I was hired to provide blog content in the form of articles and sometimes photographs. I worked directly with Scott Viscomi and the team of sponsored athletes to create content that represented the team, the products, and the message of the company. The website has since been redone so I’ve linked some of the articles in a pdf below. “After meeting her on photoshoot where she was assisting our second unit still photographer Shu, I was immediately drawn to Erin’s professionalism and comfort under time pressure in a frenetic environment. She introduced herself as writer, and I immediately hired her to manage our adidas combat sports blog. She wrote multiple original stories, conducted interviews with star athletes, and served as a major factor in communicating our desired goal of earning respect in the Jiu Jitsu community. She nailed every deadline I gave her, and contributed greatly to our bottom line by driving up our sites SEO value. She is by far one of the most capable, intelligent, unselfish and fun colleagues I’ve had the honor of working with.” - Scott Viscomi President/ Managing Director, adidas Combat Sports USA (former) SAMPLE WORK Articles here https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac68b090dbda36d16d175a7/1533255293364-9LZWYSQ2FK5W16BR7NLI/gracie%2Bmagazine.jpeg Writing - GracieMag I was hired by Luca Atalla in November 2012 as a journalist. In the two and a half years I worked there, I traveled to numerous countries and competitions to take photos as well as write the results of each division. I also posted to social media, and wrote long-form narratives whenever possible. My workload consisted fo 3-4 articles per day.

At the time, they were the major company producing the podcasts, videos, DVDs, within the community. They also held the rights for all filmed IBJJF tournaments so it was a big opportunity for me. After asking them to promote my Pulling Guard Zine, a printed out small magazine, they offered instead to hire me as a contract writer producing interviews with BJJ’s biggest names. The blog has since deleted my interviews so here is a PDF below.
