Chandi Gilbert

Equal parts writer and introvert, Chandi Gilbert has combined her superpowers to help others avoid phone calls all day long.

Chandi is a freelance writer for hire. She works from her home in Ohio while her spoiled four-legged children pull double duty as creative directors and heads of security. She could probably be rich, but she is busy giving her dogs the lives they deserve.

She loves sharing pieces of her weird little heart and helping other introverts feel less strange. Chandi is a feature writer on Contena and WellMe. She's also written for Bolde and Harness. She loves helping new writers succeed as they transition to freelancing freedom.
