Jen Matteis
Writer & Editor
Who I am
Writing is my passion. I'm the Content & Production Editor for Insureon, the leading online marketplace for small business insurance.
My focus is web content, but I love print too. You can find my articles in newspapers, magazines, fiction anthologies, and various other publications you can hold in your hands.
You can find me in real life in an unreal place, Silicon Valley.
Where I'm from
I grew up in Clinton, CT and started out as a journalist for my hometown newspaper. At Shore Publishing, I wrote and edited under tight deadlines. I interviewed hundreds of town officials, community leaders, and residents. As Section Editor, I determined content and layout for Spring Home & Garden, Fashion on the Shoreline, and other special sections.
In 2011, I drove across the country to a new home in Oregon. There I wrote for The Corvallis Gazette-Times, The Rogue Valley Messenger, and The Corvallis Advocate where I served as copy editor. My articles have appeared in over a dozen newspapers, along with magazines on both coasts.
What I do
I'm a digital content expert. Soon after joining Insureon, I led a team of six contractors in the migration of our websites to a new content management system. The project involved writing and editing more than a thousand articles on business insurance topics.
Thanks to my continuing work at Insureon, I'm an expert on small business insurance. Our 1,500+ educational web pages are referenced by Forbes and other publications.
Every day I create compelling online content to satisfy the needs of small business owners and web bots alike.
