Memoirs, company visions, services offered . . . we all have stories to tell. Sadly, so many of them fail to receive the recognition they deserve, or worse, never even see the light of day. Every story deserves to be told, and told well. A story is like a marble statue; the finished product is already in the marble, the artist simply taps into the essence and draws forth the beauty hidden inside. My goal, as a writer and editor, is to bring out the best in your story. Whether you're sharing personal memoirs or professional services, I hone your voice and vision into its best, most successful form. I specialize in marketing, publishing, and development. My skills include writing copy for online and print collateral such as web content, email marketing, newsletters, brochures, blogs, and social media; fundraising materials such as annual reports and grants; and consulting for website flow and conversion. As an early adopter, I started my first blog when they were still called "weblogs," was a beta tester for GMail, and had a Twitter account before Ashton Kutcher. Combine that with a degree in Advertising, a degree in Communication Arts, and more than dozen years of experience, and you've got yourself one heck of a word nerd powerhouse at your service.
