With a diverse skill set, I specialize in beta reading, proofreading, and content editing, helping authors refine their work while maintaining their unique voice. My background in healthcare has significantly strengthened my communication skills and ability to approach projects with precision and care. Whether it’s evaluating manuscripts, offering constructive feedback, or creating a short story, I am dedicated to enhancing the quality and clarity of every piece I work on. I have recently released a series of guided, adolescent keepsake journals for children navigating life between two split homes, reaching far more success than initially intended. I would love to extend my creative abilities to other entrepreneurs worldwide.

My desire is to be a thermostat instead of a thermometer; because a thermometer merely reflects its environment, while a thermostat changes its environment. If you are looking for an authentic and engaging writer who can cast a vision, paint a picture, or move a heart, then I would love to partner with you in changing our culture in positive ways. For the past twenty-five years, I have been teaching the basic tenets of religion and spirituality in the role of a pastor/teacher and feel a special calling to impart biblical truth in practical ways to this next generation of believers and spiritual seekers. Creative writing is one of the ways God has called and gifted me in that endeavor; and I have been blessed with the opportunity to publish several print and digital pieces. Both clients and readers have found that I have the skills to write in ways that are informative, creative, and most importantly biblically sound. Before entering the ministry full-time I worked in the radio industry and wrote copy for advertising spots on the radio, so I also have the ability to write concise attention grabbing material that engages readers. I have the ability to connect with a diverse demographic in ways that are both in-depth and at the same written in easy to understand language. Feedback from readers reveals that my education and life experiences resonate with people in deep and personal ways through the written word. My turn around time from concept to composition is fast and free of errors. Once we agree to collaborate on an assignment, you will discover that I quickly respond to inquiries and instructions. As for my education and experience, along with serving as a pastor, I have previously served as an adjunct professor teaching religion courses both in the classroom and online. Currently, I hold a Doctor of Ministry degree from the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky and am presently pursuing a PhD. in Theology at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. I also have two masters’ degrees (Master of Divinity and Master of the Arts of Religion) from Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary in Lynchburg, Virginia. I am currently serving my twentieth year as the pastor of Calhoun Baptist Church in Calhoun, KY. If the above description sounds like the type of individual you’d like to work with, I would love to partner with you in changing the culture of our world in positive ways and will take on the task with great diligence!
