About Me
I am an award-winning journalist. After working in the business sector as a team manager, account and project manager, I've returned to my writing roots.
My interests include travel, sports, entertainment, business development, business and commercial brands, education, project management issues and features, client development and relationship building, minority-related issues and features, as well as education features.
I enjoy college and professional sports, including pro football, hockey and Major League Baseball. College sports include watching football, hockey, basketball, baseball and soccer.
Playing miniature golf, watching movies at theaters and home, dining out at all types of restaurants, and traveling to unknown or lesser known attractions, such as smaller communities and festivals and celebrations.
