I am a freelance writer, editor and WordPress website designer in Portland, Oregon, who uses the power of story to help my clients effect personal and organizational change. I have worked with clients in fields ranging from economics, finance, public health and nuclear security to accelerated learning, creativity, personal coaching and spiritual development. In the end, it all comes down to storytelling. My goal is to help you tell YOUR story in the best way I can. How do I do this? By designing, writing, editing and publishing powerful communications—both online and in print—that showcase your thought leadership and transformational solutions. This helps you reach more people, make a bigger difference, and grow your business, too. Your story can take many forms, such as a business website, website content, corporate story, white paper, case study, press release, ebook and more. My education includes an MA in Writing with an emphasis on Publishing and an MA in Linguistics with an emphasis on teaching ESL. I have extensive experience teaching university writing composition and ESL courses to people from around the world, as well as writing and editing professional communications.
