Professional Bio

Genie Blake is a registered nurse and freelance healthcare writer. Her clinical experience provides a rich background for her diverse writing portfolio, which includes website content, patient education, device manuals, blog posts, and health library articles. Her website thecontentnurse.com contains samples of her work.

Genie is especially skilled at using appropriate voice, performing evidence-based research, and following health literacy guidelines. She is also super chill and enjoys building positive relationships with clients and team members.

Genie’s most recent partnership was with the Colorectal Cancer Alliance where she served as primary content writer for their patient platform website bluehq.org. This site won a 2024 Anthem Award and was also recognized by the White House Cancer Moonshot program in 2023.

Genie is a native Philadelphian who now lives in Maryland and sometimes Arizona. She also has a BFA from Temple University, so she spends her free time working on ridiculous paintings of dogs and the desert.
