Finding the heart of the story

Hello, and thanks for stopping by.

For over 20 years, my career has been rooted in the power of professional storytelling. With 17 years in a newsroom and years leading communications for mission-driven community organizations, I’ve spent my career writing everything from breaking news to personal columns and strategic narratives.

This site serves as an archive of that work. While I’m not currently seeking new client projects, I welcome connections with fellow writers, editors and old friends.
