Professional Experience
I'm a content strategist and developer, an author, an editor, and a writer. While I work on content covering a wide range of topics, my areas of special expertise include technology, photography, and digital media. I've written two books published by National Geographic, and have written, edited, and assigned countless articles for print and online outlets. I'm adept at developing and producing content for both print and digital formats.
