About Me

I'm a content creator. I went to school to study mass communications, and every job I've ever had since has utilized my writing and speaking skills. I have over 25 years of diverse content creation and development experience.

My first job out of college was as a writer for the Wisconsin Sports Authority in Milwaukee. Later, I founded a national radio program and wrote everything - from radio scripts to web content. After 5 years of hosting my own radio program, I was hired by a large national radio program to be their content researcher and writer. I've also spent many years working with people on a local level which has required me to use my writing and communication skills to produce print resources, web content, and audio and video content that clearly communicate complex concepts in understandable ways. 

With over 25 years of diverse content development experience, I'm equipped and qualified to serve you and your company. Check out my portfolio for a broad example of my work.
