I'm a senior-level writer/editor with more than 25 years of experience, 18 of which were spent writing and editing for National Geographic magazine and its award-winning website. My writing is engaging, and my editing is meticulous. Although much of my work has dealt with diverse cultures, scientific subjects, and natural history, I'm fortunate to be able to say—without boasting—that I can write and edit just about anything. If you're looking for a friendly, highly skilled, and talented professional possessing a gift with words, you won't be disappointed. More than any other place in my career, National Geographic magazine honed my talent for writing poignant, compelling, informative text. My writing has been described as engaging, and my editing has been praised as meticulous. I excel at turning the mundane into magic. By adding a bit of verbal spice, I transform bland expressions into words that leave a flavorful bloom and an unforgettable memory.
