I write for a variety of industries and businesses

About Me

I have two decades of writing and editing experience. More has been in sportswriting than anything else, with extensive experience at FOXSports.com and FOXNews.com. I also spent some time as a broadcaster, so I can write scripts, radio/TV ads, and more.

Consulting work has spanned industries such as telecommunications, automotive parts manufacturing, real estate and economic development. While an ad agency account manager, I learned insurance, childrenswear and a bit of consumer products (a soft drink). If I don't have experience in an industry, I'll learn it quickly. SEO is always a consideration for website writing and blogging, and I'm well-versed in writing for social media platforms.

My Writing Samples

Waiting for Tiger

I wrote this when Tiger Woods returned from his infamous domestic incident. It's not really a marketing piece, but it displays my writing versatility.

Loop Communications features

We've written posts for each of Loop's 38 business phone features, reasoning that sheer volume of content would aid SEO performance. It has, with web traffic doubling year over year.
