🔍: who is peter lowe?

The last 10 years

July 2024 - Present
I have stayed busy freelancing. Lots of content and email marketing. The upside of contracting is I get to see how a few different teams have shifted content strategies in response to AI-mediated search. I've been working with TechRepublic, Crazy Egg, Neil Patel, IWT, and picked up a local client, CR Marketing.

2020 - July 2024
In 2020, I joined Stone Press full-time as a Staff Writer. I was employee #5, and when we hit 25 full-time employees, I was promoted to Growth Specialist where I worked with a few different teams to ensure we published content that aligned with our business objectives.

2015 - 2020
In 2015, I picked up a call from an friend asking if I could pitch any ideas for blog posts about Star Wars and tort law. I said, Sure, and wound up writing for the firm as a contractor for the next five years. Over time, I built a diverse clientele with a steady appetite for content. I learned to get ahead of topics, pitch ideas, and deliver on a deadline.

2015 - 2018
I worked as an instructor in College Composition while I earned my MA in English at the University of Maine. My focus was Creative Writing, so I wrote a lot of short stories, experimental fiction, and adapted a play from 1599 into a modern-day film script. Along with teaching ENG 101, I wrote freelance part-time, volunteered in the Writing Center, and mentored the incoming instructors during my final year.
