PROFILES

An award winning freelance writer, photographer, and educator, I have published over 300 articles since 2008 and assisted authors in bringing five books to publication in the past 24 months. I have been freelancing full time since 2005, working primarily in the fields of marketing media writing and architectural photography, as well as personal and business profiles, press releases and regional event coverage.

As I interviewed winner after winner, I discovered that every “success story” had a turning point, a dark night when all seemed lost. How and why these individuals had turned it around was the best part of the story. Every story I wrote left a trace of its strength in my life, and I began to long for these stories to be more widely heard. My other passion is photography, but that…is anothe
