Bio

Writing is not just my profession, it’s my passion. It has allowed me to travel the globe, visiting far-flung locales to interview everyone from billionaires to blow-gun toting tribal chiefs. It’s also given me the opportunity to write about filmmakers in India, the music scene in Iceland, conservation efforts in South America and the best restaurants in Los Angeles. I mention this because these experiences give my writing an informed texture so needed in today’s communications when readers, clients and potential customers are bombarded with oceans of adjectives coming at them from multiple platforms. Whether I’m writing a feature for a major publication (over 50 at last count), website content, ad copy or press releases for a client, I bring the same engaging authenticity to each project so it reaches its true potential. Yes, my beats, projects and platforms may vary widely, but the results are always consistent: on message, on target and on time.

Here’s a quick summary covering my 20 years in the business where I get to drop some names (and hopefully add yours to the list—see the full list here) Feature Articles (Travel, food, wine & spirits, automotive, consumer technology, design, spa & wellness, film industry) American Way, Condé Nast Traveler, Delta Sky, Los Angeles Times, The New York Times, Sierra magazine, The Hollywood Reporter, Variety and dozens more. Marketing Communications (Branded content, copywriting, custom magazines, press releases, speeches) ASPCA, Art Center College of Design, Biltmore Hotels, Kimpton Hotels, Golin-Harris, Los Angeles Auto Show, Sony, Omnicom, Tommy Bahama, Toyota USA, TBWA\Chiat\Day, Volvo Group North America.
