About Me

I’m a wordsmith. I love wordsmithery. With a talent for crafting corporate communications, I bring a wealth of experience and a commitment to excellence to every project. My 29-year career in the U.S. Coast Guard and my work as a freelance writer and editor have honed my skills in producing a diverse set of print and digital communications. These include slide decks, job aids, instructions, policies, procedures, reports, and web content. My primary goal is always to ensure the message is accessible and engaging.
