Who writes your copy? Spotlight on… Laura Kowski

MAY 2021 NEWSLETTER

Laura Kowski, Avion copywriter

Hi there!

I’m Laura, a copywriter and conversation designer here at Avion. If that second part made you scratch your head, I encourage you to read more about conversation design. I’ve only been here for a month, but what a month it’s been! Things are well and truly taking flight…

Highlights and key insights

I’ve written for a range of industries over the years. From fashion to food, fitness to furry-friends, and many things in-between (they don’t all start with F, I promise). And while I’ve mostly focused on SEO copywriting and content, I’ve applied my social media know-how by recently taking on Avion’s social content.

Conversation design is still a fresh and fast-growing field, so I feel very privileged to be working in this space. One of the projects I’m working on involves writing responses for an exciting new voice assistant for a large organisation in the finance industry. I’m also creating new responses for virtual assistants to help facilitate more transaction-based capabilities.

When it comes to putting pen to paper personally, I enjoy writing short stories, poetry, and when inspiration strikes, blogging about all the weird and wonderful phenomena of millennial life.

Fun facts about me

  1. I have a degree in music performance—specifically classical piano.
  2. I can hula hoop for a really long time. Like, a really long time.
  3. I’m THE vegan in the workplace—and have been since 2010 (before it was ~cool~). Just kidding. It has always been cool.

If you’d like to learn a little more about conversation design or have some content that needs polishing, feel free to email me.

All the best!

Laura & the Avion team.
