23 Years Experience

Professional Experience

Wherever you read it, good writing resonates. From Bertolli to Breville, print to PBS, e-commerce campaigns to features inviting hunger, thirst and thought, my cross-genre background guides my gut about what makes quality content. My 500+ regional and national clips span education, psychology and travel, and include b2b and ghost-written content; RFPs; news; profiles; and retail website content. Clients praise my work's wit and lyricism. I'm armed with curiosity and empathy, and from the corporate to the creative I deliver in clients' voice of choice because I take direction well. Consider me for your next project. I craft come-hither content that keeps people reading-buying-wanting more of what you've got. **NOTE: I'm based in Boston and Las Vegas.**
