Kaitlyn Petry Writes

Hey, I’m Kait.

I’m a professional copywriter in Edmonton, Alberta.

I’m passionate about clear communication, storytelling, and making a big impact with the least amount of words! From video scripts to billboards to email newsletter campaigns, I’ve written it all! In my spare time, I’m a busy mom who enjoys killing plants (and characters, too).

Testimonial

I hired Kaitlyn to support the website copy for an international e-commerce brand. She worked quickly translating our vision and voice for the site perfectly. The client was so pleased, they hired us for more work. Her organizational skills as well as her strategic and creative approach to the website copy were vital in the website winning an IABC Silver Leaf Award of Merit. I would hire her again in a heartbeat!

Who is Kait, Anyway?

A well-meaning teacher once told me I should be a writer, and I’ve been pursuing that dream ever since.

After achieving my degree in Communications at MacEwan University, I started my career as a Video Script Developer at NAIT. There, I developed an appreciation for plain language and subject matter ranging from workplace safety to laminating dough! I returned to MacEwan for my diploma in Public Relations in 2017, which introduced me to a new role in marketing and advertising.

Since then, I’ve written websites, newsletters, print and advertising materials, and detailed content and communications strategies.

When I’m not writing, I can be found chasing my daughter around the house, spending weekends at the family cabin, or watching re-runs of RuPaul’s Drag Race.

Let’s hang out.
