When you work freelance, you don't have a lot of options, unless you had a client that used you repeatedly or someone who referred work to you over and over. Is there perhaps a university official aware of this endeavor?
No, no university official. I pretty much stopped doing it after we moved back to the US and I started school again so I could focus on my studies.
I did have some repeat customers, but nothing super extensive. Most of the my clients were digital marketing agencies. They would typically hire me when their writers were either overwhelmed with looming deadlines, couldn't write social media posts that were engaging enough according to the boss's taste, or needed the grammar and spelling changed from Indian English to US or UK English. A friend of mine who's a copywriter there did refer a client to me once right before we left Dubai, but there wasn't an opportunity after that for it to happen again.
EDIT: Is any of what's in italics above worth saying in my activities description of this? I haven't included any of that, and I just realized it's sort of a nice summary of my role within the digital marketing market.
