About Claire

Editor & Storyteller specializing in media, news, and narrative.

I help brands, media outlets, and companies transform their ideas into clear, structured, and deeply engaging content.

Looking for a writer who can bring meaning, rhythm, and real intention to your messages?

With a background in television, I've mastered the art of writing quickly, accurately, and with impact, whether for short formats or more developed narratives.

What I bring to you:
• Storytelling: I transform your intentions into concrete and original scripts, adapted to your platforms.
• Impactful content: A clear, structured message, written in the tone and language of your audience.
• Tailored speeches: I take the time to understand your values and challenges to create an authentic and memorable voice.

Types of projects:
• articles (news, society, culture, portraits)
• interviews & reports
• short scripts, creative ideas
• speeches & institutional texts
• editorial content for brands and media

I use AI as a support tool to refine or correct my texts — never to write for me.

I work iteratively to achieve a flawless final version.

In my portfolio, you will find:
-a speech written for the commemoration of Guy Verstraete - Belgian Spy engaged by MI6 during World War II.
-a segment I produced, shot, and edited for RTBF. I also wrote an article on the subject.

My profile and portfolio are under construction, feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
