Highlights

I have several years' experience as a writer and journalist and have published clips in various national, regional and local newspapers and magazines. In addition, I've also worked for a number of online clients, researching and writing about topics such as politics, small business/entrepreneurship, and lifestyle issues. For the past two years I've written a weekly column for the Grand Junction Free Press and have contributed reporting pieces as well as features as one of their regular correspondents.

I've also served as a grants director for a private college and managing editor of a research institute newsletter. In other words, I'm a very professional, deadline-driven and highly organized wordsmith with a passion for creating quality content for my clients and delivering them well within their deadline and style requirements. I'm seeking new clients who believe that words matter and that having a superior communications strategy is key to attracting and maintaining customers.
