Newspaper Columnist: Gatehouse Media, "MKT Tech Talk" (2006-Present) I started writing by accident -- a local newspaper wanted an article about the Y2K problem back in 1998. Since then I have penned over 500 newspaper articles, 150 magazine articles and thousands of web content articles. I hold a BS in Computer Science, a MS in Economics and am working on my MBA. I love to learn! I mostly write about consumer-related items (personal finance, home ownership, etc.) but also enjoy writing about automotive issues, economic issues and the occassional opinion piece. I believe very strongly in non-profit organizations, and am proud to be on the Board of Directors for two in my area.
