A native East Coaster who found her way westward. One who believes in the power of words. . .with an abiding appreciation for the world of well-run business. My experience writing and editing spans multiple genres--product launch, press releases, newspaper writing, copywriting, sports and sporting events, profile sketch, environmental pursuits, the great outdoors, Florida dispatches, adaptive reuse, historic preservation, speech writing, oral history, research, feature journalism, writing the region whether local or abroad, and children's stories. I love to read good writing wherever I might find it. My own work is given with a spirit of goodwill, energy and result.
