Sophie Baker

Writing that travels. Strategy that sticks.

I've spent over a decade leading content and brand for global consumer companies, including Samsung, Virgin Mobile and Pacific Insurance. Along the way I've run a global rebrand that generated more than eight million dollars in earned media, grown organic traffic by as much as 98 percent in a single year, and built new digital products from the ground up. At the same time, I've kept writing. My travel features have appeared in Condé Nast Traveler, Travel and Leisure, and Lonely Planet, which is what first brought me to this work and still shapes how I think about brands and storytelling today.

Travel and food writing

Content strategy and senior consulting

I work with brands as a senior content consultant on strategy, AI search optimisation, brand voice, and hands-on writing. I have led content at scale across global consumer brands, and I contribute at the level the brand actually needs: strategy only, execution only, or both.

Equestrian writing

Twenty years competing. Writing from inside the sport.

I have owned and competed horses for over twenty years. I currently ride at fourth level and advanced dressage, with Prix St. Georges as my next FEI goal. That is not background detail. It is the reason my equestrian writing reads like it comes from someone who has ridden a half-pass, not researched one.
