Professional Experience
I'm a fast, reliable, smart freelance journalist and editor with a special knack for intriguing angles and fresh ideas. My reviews, essays and feature articles appear weekly in publications around the country. Seal Press published my memoir, "Free Fall," in 2010. I've accumulated wonderful reviews and awards. I have an extensive background in arts and feature writing, and in managing creative services.
