    I am a professional librarian with over ten years of experience in web-based, library and archival research in demanding government and academic environments. I am also a trained historian who loves diving into research, writing and editing for historical and archival projects. I am available for in-person research at the Wisconsin Historical Society in Madison, WI. I am a metadata expert, with skills to design and fine-tune organization systems for your research project, digital asset management system, digital image database, and more. For six years I taught expert strategies for research and information organization at an R1 university, including designing and executing a number of online courses and contributing to curriculum and program planning, student advising, and data-driven budgeting and resource management. I thrive on identifying and solving knotty problems, figuring out systems for organizing and streamlining processes, and making frustrating situations easier for researchers, students and colleagues. Some of my favorite tools are Excel, Tableau, Zotero, Keynote, Asana, Canvas and Camtasia, but I'm equally at home devising curriculum for an online course using mind maps and index cards, or searching library catalogs, image databases and newspaper archives to track down stories, citations and data. With my background in historical research, skills in French and German, stellar written communication, and expertise in metadata, data cleaning, and visualization, I have the tools I need to be nimble and creative as I attack your problems, clean up your manuscript, chase down your answers, and make your work less stressful and more fulfilling.

    I am seeking opportunities to narrate books and deliver quality voice-overs. I have had numerous friends and acquaintances encourage me to pursue this endeavor, and I would thoroughly enjoy helping you convey your story or message through effective verbal communication. I have crafted and utilized verbal communication for the past 30 years in my professional life as a business professional, fitness trainer, and high school teacher & coach. I enjoy and excel at persuading, motivating and moving people to act through verbal communication. I have been listening to audiobooks for the past few decades and believe they are essential to the foundation of literature and storytelling. All of these factors would allow me to support your mission by utilizing my voice to communicate your message. Thank you for your consideration! -Jeff

    I have worked in nonprofits for the past 14 years, all of which have been in the museum field. During my tenure, I have worked all of those years in development, while the past 10 have been at the executive level. During my tenure, I have been highly successful with fundraising, ranging from solicitation letters, event proposals, to grant writing. I have written and received more than $860,000 in grant funds from both public and private foundations, as well as local, state, and regional funding sources. The grant funds were for projects ranging from programming and special events, to exhibits and advertising. Despite my career being in the history field, I have volunteered in educational capacities at local elementary schools. With this experience, I have a solid understanding of the needs and requirements for funding opportunities for educational purposes. I can either write a brand new proposal for you, or review what you have written acting as the grant reviewer. I will supply you with an edited version of your grant proposal, as well as comments about the content and clarity of your request. If you are applying for a job in the development field, or something entirely different, I can create a brand new, appealing resume and cover letter. Or, I can proofread your current resume and cover letter. Similarly to the grant proposal review, I will review your documents as an executive looking to hire you. I will supply you with an edited copy of your resume and cover letters and provide comments about the content and clarity of both documents. In my personal life, I have extensive experience in playing and coaching a variety of sports, ranging from baseball and football, to soccer and hockey. I have used my love of sports to create exhibits on the history of baseball to conducting presentations on the topic to hundreds of people. I look forward to working with you to utilize my skills and help you complete your project.
