Jules Costa is a Brazilian content strategist, entrepreneur and digital nomad at @JulesOnTap on Instagram.
Jules started out living paycheck-to-paycheck as a freelance copywriter and often struggled to make ends meet.

Jules now balances their business and travel with their goal of FIRE. On their Instagram, Jules shares value-packed personal finance and business tips for freelancers. Their ultimate goal is to see freelancers stop working for pennies and start valuing their time and skills.
