Professional Experience
Specialties honed during more than a decade as a freelance writer include travel, tourism, commercial real estate, home interiors and profiles. Additional career highlights include a published travel guide (Moon Kansas City) and positions as a chief content officer and content manager. I live to tell stories, and I'd love to help with yours.
