About

Using art and the written word to communicate effectively for life

I bring over 20 years of experience across visual design, writing, and editorial roles. As a graphic designer, I've worked for major publishers and television networks, developing designs for print and digital media. I later taught art and design at the college level while also developing exhibitions as a designer for a prominent museum.

In my personal time, I have pursued my passion for writing by authoring 21 children's and young adult books. Five of my books are available on Amazon, and my articles regularly appear on websites like Hubpages, where I currently have over 90 published pieces.

Over the course of my multifaceted career, I have honed skills in writing, editing, and proofreading to the highest professional standards. I have utilized these abilities to assist others as a ghostwriter and editor of AI-generated texts, ensuring they meet publishable quality.

Below are a few of my published books:

• The Salem Mystery: ISBN 966 25 025 5 (winner of the Jomo Kenyatta Prize for Literature, adolescent category, 2003)

• The Red Coat: ISBN 978 966 25 535 4 (nominated for the Impac Dublin Literary Award in 2010.)
