Professional/Personal Overview
Writer, author, editor, explorer. I write spirited stories on all sorts of topics. Past assignments include pieces on dating, food, pirates, tax abatements and home design. I submit my work on time. Always. Features and service stories are my specialty. I'm also quick with web and marketing copy and will edit the heck out of your words.
