Professional Experience

Years spent in the newsroom and in the corporate arena enable me to write knowledgeably about everything from the starting quarterback to local history to retirement investing. My copy is engaging, clean, easy-to-follow, and tells a great story. As an editor I allow the writer to tell the story, while seeking ways to tighten the text and limiting industry jargon.
