Welcome!
BUSINESS/COPYWRITING
Business fluctuates. Budgets vary. People come and go. These are just a few of the reasons why businesses hire me on an occasional or ongoing basis to create well-crafted marketing materials, direct-mail pieces, Web sites, blogs, newsletters, press releases, sales letters, PowerPoint presentations, manuals, social media content, trade articles and ad copy. When the need arises, I partner with a talented designer and a reputable programmer to get the job done.

MAGAZINE WRITING
For more than 15 years, I have written for numerous consumer and custom publications. Regardless of the assignment, the goal is always the same--to create compelling written content. It might be a travel piece for Ohio Magazine or a business article for Forbes Woman. It could even be a parenting piece for Woman's Day, Family Fun or Parenting. I have written about everything from gourmet food to fast food and road building to world-class equestrian events.

PHILOSOPHY
My approach to every assignment is the same: Complete the job accurately and efficiently, while always paying special attention to detail. Deliver results on time. And make every effort to get it right the first time.
