Hello!
I’m Portia East, the Director of Sharp Eye. I live in Leicestershire and work for clients all over the UK. I’m a married mum of one (well, three if you count our chihuahuas!) and I enjoy podcasts, documentaries and DIY!
My story
I have had a passion for writing for as long as I can remember. I began writing
professionally around 20 years ago, starting out as a copywriter and proofreader. Over the last 12+ years, I have specialised in instructional design, initially working as an eLearning content writer, then developing my skills over the years to become Head of Digital Learning at a consultancy firm, where I managed the end- to-end development of
accredited online training and bespoke client projects.
I have worked on hundreds of digital learning projects for clients in a broad range of
industries, including Government departments and the finance, charity, construction,
healthcare and retail sectors, as well as script writing for several animations. I am now in
the fortunate position of doing what I love on a freelance basis, which enables me to
continue creating content for my wonderful clients, old and new!
My aim
To deliver content that engages, informs, and reflects my clients’ brands and tone of voice
by working collaboratively throughout the production process.
