WriterEditorContent Editor (online)

As a highly-experienced lifestyle reporter and copywriter, I cover beauty, fashion, weddings, shopping, relationships, food, and more. My client list includes dozens of national magazines, web, and commerce sites, including. MICHAEL KORS, COSMOPOLITAN, GLAMOUR, GOOD HOUSEKEEPING, and BRIDES. I've also made a number of TV guest appearances as a beauty/style expert; and am currently a contributing writer to JOICO/ZOTOS, one of the largest international haircare companies. While my topics run the gamut from lighthearted to serious, I love to focus on topics that improve readers' everyday lives...from reviewing the hottest new beauty finds on the market...to showing readers how they can stand their ground with a bullying boss. That said, it's hard for me to turn down writing about beauty and weddings in any way, shape, or form. I'm a sucker for a great pink lipgloss.

Boston, MA

Art DirectorGraphic DesignerWeb Designer

I operate a full-service graphic design studio based in the Boston area offering design, art direction, and project management services for publications and other content-rich print & digital media. Work includes books, magazines, websites, newsletters, catalogs, annual reports, programs, and marketing collateral such as brochures and direct-mail. We also consult on social media integration, and ongoing web design and content management. We excel at creating media products that integrate words, images and interactivity to produce compelling, well organized publications and web environments. What sets me apart as a designer is that I can think like an editor. Design is not just about looking good; it must reinforce or add a new dimension to the text, present an appropriate visual tone, and guide the reader. John was previously a staff art director at several local media companies including Experience.com, Cadmus Custom Publishing, Running Times, The Boston Phoenix, and Boston Business magazine.
