Highlights

An experienced and skilled writer, editor, and photography with journalism and photojournalism awards, I also offer strong skills in research, document design, and desktop publishing for businesses, government, schools, and nonprofit organizations. I can turn any subject, no matter how technical, into a enjoyable read. I'm good because I'm interested in everything and can write in varying styles, from formal to conversational.

Media include newspapers; newsletters; websites; product and other technical documentation; proposals; promotional and training materials; books; brochures; multimedia presentations; and film, video, and audio scripts.

Experienced with diverse computer hardware and software, particularly related to paper or electronic media production; photography, film, and video production equipment; and the Internet.

Particular experience and interests include conservation and environmental management and outreach, health care, economics, but am a generalist with a broad background and skill set who can come up to speed quickly on almost any subject.

Work Terms

For new clients, will only work with employers who agree to the escrow service. Payment can be by check, E-Check, wire transfer, or SafePay Account Funds. While I am generally available most days and at most times as necessary, I prefer to be contacted by e-mail (first preference) or phone during regular business hours (9-5 weekdays).

A self-starter who has experience developing and managing projects, I work hard and efficiently, make sure my clients get what they need, and ask questions if I'm unclear about what the client wants. I expect clients to be clear about the task at hand, communicate as often as necessary to produce high-quality products, and pay on time.
