Shannon was a pleasure to work with during my time as editor with two print monthly publications in the SoCal area. She soon became my go-to writer for story assignments and is one of the writers I worked with closely across multiple issues of the magazines. Her work required minimal editing, was always submitted on time and covered all aspects of the story as per slant. Shannon is a reliable writer with strong journalistic skills and a positive addition to any team.

My Work

My business partner and I were working on launching a new business and we were referred to Shannon to help re-structure and re-build an existing website that used WordPress. Let me first say that as business owners, we were EXTREMELY picky while also struggling through the stage of refining our vision. Shannon was the picture of grace as she helped us navigate the process of making our website vision into a reality, often building something only to change it for us later on. She was always flexible, helpful, and warm throughout our work together and made it clear that she simply wanted us to be happy with the end product. She even gave us a tutorial on how to manage the site and make edits ourselves once she was done building it. My partner and I are so glad we had Shannon to help us get our business going.

My work

Shannon is powerful beyond measure and anyone that gets to work with her is very lucky! Shannon has created a lot of magic for me these past couple years. She worked for me at F45 Training and helped us create fliers, newsletters, graphics, and social media content for our studio. She also worked for me on my personal brand creating content and drove engagement on my social media platforms. Not only does Shannon posses epic marketing skills, she is just a treat to work with! Her energy is always top notch and she can solve any problem with purpose, grace and ease! I highly recommend Shannon for all of your marketing needs!

Dig in your heels

When I backpacked the Trans-Catalina trail this past spring, I had to really dig my heels in.  Maybe it was due to grit. Or maybe because the pads of my feet were literally blistering off. Here’s what happened I left my hiking boots on the

Taking the lead

Taking the lead I think it’s helpful to do things that make you feel badass once in a while. A visceral demonstration for me is lead climbing. Saying “yes” to something that makes your stomach flutter or your heart pick up its pace can be

Working with Shannon was the smartest, and looking back obvious choice to elevate my company’s content. Her writing style is creative, succinct and informative. She takes the guesswork out of the details that hold people back from expanding their company. I loved how she confidently expanded on my ideas without me having to guide her. Working with Shannon is a very intuitive process and she consistently meets and exceeds your expectations.

I had the pleasure of working with Shannon Barr as her supervisor for almost a year. Apart from being a quick study with great work ethics, Shannon demonstrated exceptional writing skills. She assisted me drafting legal arguments in immigration petitions which required attention to detail, creativity, and independent research. Shannon excelled at all of that, whether she had templates to follow or had to modify templates to make the argument stronger or better organized. I am confident she will do great in any writing endeavor.
