Robert Peiffle holds a bagel in front of his face and looks into the camera. His long beard is visible through the hole in the bagel.

Some stuff about me, I guess.

Are you sure you’re interested?

If you've actually decided to read this "About" section then you're one of  two kinds of people: someone who is serious about hiring an awesome copywriter, or you're my mom. (Hi Mom!)

Born and raised in the great Pacific Northwest (though now living in the also-great city of Chicago), I've been writing stories down ever since I was a little kid. When I learned that you could actually get paid to write things I realized I needed to look into it, since my landlord refused to accept short stories in lieu of rent payment.

I'm interested in solving user problems and working on interesting products. Lately, I’ve been leading a team of copywriters and information architects, collaborating with product teams and new products with great content design.

Going beyond work, I'm usually reading large books, writing fiction, watching soccer or basketball, and cooking. Drop me a line if you want a killer sourdough bread recipe.
