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.
