Professional Experience

I am a versatile digital, broadcast and print journalist who has spent the last 10 years living and working in the Middle East, in Abu Dhabi near Dubai. I've earned a reputation here and in North America for producing compelling and creative content and knowing what people want to read online. An award-winning feature writer and columnist, I have most recently worked as an editor for both news and arts and lifestyles. I was an early blogger, launching in 2006 for Canada's largest newspaper chain and continuing to this day. I also take quality photographs and produce video and audio content.
