Lucas Gobert - Profile Picture.jpg

I am a freelance writer, editor, and storyteller.

I want to help you tell your story.

I went to York University for a double major in Creative & Professional Writing to hone my craft as both a writer and an editor. I worked for 7 years at Ryerson University, using my skills and knowledge as a writer/editor to help my coworkers tell engaging, effective stories. I left in 2017 to pursue my creative dreams, and since then have helped individuals (filmmakers, children’s book authors), organizations (Chang School of Continuing Education, eBound), businesses (real estate, marketing, publishing), and other creatives achieve their goals through story.

I am passionate about creating stories. Let me help you tell yours!
