Writing, editing, mentoring, spiritual directing,  singing, skiing,  jewelry making,  curly-haired word nerd

I am a communications professional with over twenty-five years of experience in writing, editing, media, public relations, marketing, corporate training, event planning, and fundraising. All of these jobs were interesting and fun but I finally found my tribe when I met all the other “word nerds” in the University of Washington editing certificate program and at the Northwest Independent Editors Guild. I realized that I wasn’t the only one who loved reading the dictionary or diagramming sentences.

As an author and freelance writer-editor for nearly two decades, my articles, essays, and columns have appeared in books, professional journals, regional newspapers, newsletters, magazines, and websites. I was even fortunate enough to earn the coveted “above-the-fold” newspaper placement as well as magazine cover articles.

Recently as an editor, I have worked with amazing physicians doing great healing work and writing books about it. Years ago, I was also one of the founding writer-editors for a regional website that won an Edward R. Murrow award for Best Television Site (Small Markets). Early in my career, I produced entertainment and marketing video content, winning a “best marketing video” award from the Boys & Girls Clubs of America.

Writing and Editing Work includes:

• • non-fiction books
  • writing and/or editing website copy
  • press releases and marketing materials
  • booklets, annual reports, and executive profiles
  • corporate newsletter writing and editing
  • magazine and website articles
  • advertisements, flyers, and brochures
  • newspaper articles and columns
  • speeches
  • spiritual writing (meditations, rituals, and prayers)
  • training manuals
  • dissertation editing
  • medical/dental writing and editing

Other Work Experience I have held positions in non-profit public relations and development, broadcast television management, corporate training, and community education. Life-long mobility and resulting adaptability have given me a unique perspective on people, business, community, and the ability of one person to effect change.

We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.
