Max Freedman
He/they
Freelance Writer

At SCS Creative, he manages several accounts, edits much of the content that other writers create, and keeps everything on a tight schedule. Outside SCS Creative, you can find him writing even more, as he interviews artists for The Creative Independent, reviews music for Paste Magazine, and is getting back into poetry.
Amanda Clark

Amanda started in the journalism field at Rutgers University, where took on multiple roles and internships that grew her passion for writing and editing in print and online publications. Her skillsets include social media copy, newsletters, blogs, product reviews, company pitches, news articles, sports reporting, interviewing, and more. She enjoys being productive and working with a team to complete the needed tasks in the production process. When Amanda’s not working, you’ll find her playing with her dog, traveling, or watching the latest show or movie — which she’ll always have her rating to give.
Natalie Hamingson
Managing Editor
Natalie is a New York-based writer with extensive freelance experience creating a wide range of content, including blogs, feature interviews, social media content, email campaigns, and more. Her primary background includes journalistic work covering everything from music, film, fashion, and art, to politics and social justice, to technology, to motorcycles and pet gift guides. As a versatile writer, she has also produced a considerable body of marketing work for small businesses. Outside of writing, she is proud to be actively involved in organizing in her Queens, N.Y. community.
Stella Morrison
She/her
Founder & CEO
Stella is an award-winning former journalist with more than 15 years of experience in telling stories for clients and communities. She brings a journalism lens to content creation strategies, developing editorially sound content that adds value to organizations. Her specialties include content writing and blogging for SEO, brand voice development, editorial calendar development, and thought leadership development.
Stella landed her first staff writing job when she was 18, working for a group of central New Jersey community newspapers. She stayed in journalism for eight years, earning first-place recognition from the New Jersey Press Association for her work covering superstorm Sandy’s damage in the Garden State. Working with a diverse set of subjects — and learning quickly to write about them on an expert level — was an essential component of her work, something that has prepared her well to tackle any subject in content marketing.
With local journalism’s future uncertain, Stella hung up her press credentials and joined the licensing and brand management industry. There, she worked closely with internationally recognized brands like Polaroid, Sharper Image, and Limited Too, collaborating with designers to ensure brand continuity and cohesion to a healthy, identifiable, and unique brand voice. Stella opened The Stellastra Effect in 2015 after noticing a need for talented, serious content writers, the increasing demand for agency partnerships in lieu of hiring full-time in-house staff writers, and the essential role of quality content writing in marketing. Since then, Stella has helped companies of all shapes and sizes formulate their brand voice and make a difference in the marketplace.
Outside of the office, you’ll find Stella tending to her plants and thrifting.
