Hi and welcome! I’m Grace Stetson (like the hat).

I’m a freelance writer, copywriter and fact-checker based in the San Francisco Bay Area.

I have had the great fortune to work with a variety of journalism outlets, including Apartment Therapy Media, HelloGiggles, John Brown Media, Dateline NBC, and San José Spotlight.

 My Background

I’m originally from Sunnyvale, a city in the South Bay Area of California, where I was first introduced to journalism via weekly watching “60 Minutes” with my parents on Sundays, catching up on the news every morning with the TODAY show on NBC, and reading every article I could muster in Newsweek, TIME, the New Yorker, the San Jose Mercury News, etc.

Over the years, I have continued to grow in my journalism capabilities and skills through both educational and professional settings, including The Seattle University Spectator, Examiner.com, Medium.com, Stanford University, WNYC, Illinois Public Media, the Chicago Reader and Disney Publishing Worldwide, among others.

Fun facts about me:

  1. I have now lived in five different cities over the last decade.

  2. I have a penchant for many many things related to exercise, health and wellness — including kickboxing, hiking, powerlifting, and cycling.

  3. I watch a lot of TV and movies — which is largely what drove me to get a second Bachelor’s degree in Film Studies.

I look forward to connecting. Enjoy my work, and talk soon.
