Where story meets strategy

Storytelling that connects

Hello, I’m Ysella Sims! I write copy from the scientific to the sublime, crafting compelling and authentic narratives that connect research institutions, creatives and independent businesses with their audiences.

From SEO-driven website content to expertly shaped messaging and editorial storytelling, my writing will elevate your voice while my project management skills make sure your website stays on track and on message.

If your message isn’t landing, your audience doesn’t understand your value, or your website isn’t delivering results, I can help.

Ysella’s creativity, drive, enthusiasm and professionalism has pushed our communications in brilliant new directions. Our website has never looked better, and this is all thanks to her continued efforts to finesse, improve and innovate

Why choose me?

I’m a communicator, but most importantly, I’m a listener. I hear what you want to say and find the best way to say it strategically, connecting you with your audience.

I have years of experience delivering complex communications and websites at national, regional and local levels for organisations like the National Institute for Health and Care Research, UKRI, universities and the NHS . I’ve also helped creatives and independent businesses grow their profiles by making sure their words work as hard as they do.

Ysella was an absolute joy to work with on setting up our communication channels for a brand new, government-funded research centre. Her careful crafting of our website content ensured it worked well for the public as well as our most experienced academic colleagues. Her ability to ensure everyone understood and engaged with highly technical medical research was incredible.
