I have over 20 years of seasoned experience in extensive copy writing, editing and graphic design experience for manuscripts, screenplays, books, web content, creative concepts/headlines, collateral material, presentations, annual reports and technical papers. Strong oral and written presentation abilities, and interpersonal skills, are some of my best working "tools." Recently, I co-authored the murder mystery novel, 'Secrets in the Shallows' with Karen Vance Hammond. We have already received amazing 5-star reviews for this book, which is the first in a trilogy.
In addition, I have implemented, managed and created many award-winning marketing programs such as branding, product development and corporate identity campaigns. This incorporates agency, corporate and artistic media production environments, including many Fortune 500 companies. I have proven that I am able to work on on many jobs simultaneously and proficiently under demanding deadlines and conditions.
