WRITER & EDITOR

BIO

I've been writing professionally for 20+ years and have a true passion for the written word. I earned my B.A. in Journalism from Temple University and continue to fine-tune the craft of writing from my home in suburban Philadelphia -- a city I Iove.

My experience is vast and encompasses article writing, content writing/SEO, sports information, copywriting, memorial writing, corporate communications, technical writing, and editing. I enjoy writing on a myriad of topics, many of which align with my interests in the outdoors, sports, education, DIY, gardening, health, genealogy, and environmental issues.

I take great pride in my professionalism and truly enjoy working with my clients: communicating, delivering quality work on deadline, and editing until they're 100% satisfied.
