I am a writer/editor with twelve years of experience. My abilities range from writing newspaper, radio and television copy, to project management and editing of health care marketing materials. I am well versed in Associated Press style and also a stickler for details. I often sit down with a copy of Newsweek magazine and find the typos or errors and often wonder why I don't work there. I enjoy helping people take their thoughts and turn them into the written word. I work quickly, but with great care. I have a bachelor’s degree in English with journalism as my minor. My education taught me how to write everything from a 30-page term paper to a 10-second radio commercial. I excel at putting passion and emotion into copy, but can also be business focused and clear and concise. I have written newsletters, profiles, press releases, short stories, business collateral pieces, solicitation letters and produced a variety of television promotions. I have edited all of those types of pieces for others as well and helped coworkers and clients improve their materials.
