Professional/Personal Overview
I am the complete journalist, able to produce the right words and compelling photography to tell the whole story. In addition to 20 years experience as a writer and photographer, I've spent many years as a magazine editor, so I am familiar with the entire publication process especially the importance of meeting deadlines. Although automotive and motorsports are specialties, I have told the stories of everything from the life of a small town Texas bootmaker to world-class triathletes; from what it takes to win the Indianapolis 500 to how to survive the Baja 1000.
