☆ ABOUT JORDEN ☆

Hi! I'm Jorden, a college dropout turned successful online business owner. I am also a published short fiction writer, which you can learn more about at my personal website linked above. :)

✅ I've been writing on the internet for about a decade! I built a $5,000/mo writing biz in 4 months after losing my job, then scaled to $8,500/mo freelance writing. Then built a multiple six figure biz! 💰

✅ I have struggled with multiple chronic health issues, so I know how difficult and life-altering it is! IF you're going through this too, please know that you are not alone. 💞

✅ I live in the PNW, I'm super passionate about rescuing Chihuahuas, and I'm a published short fiction writer currently working on a novel. 📚

If you want to learn the process I used to grow an freelance writing biz as a beginner and college dropout, I'd LOVE to see you in my free class here: 👇
