    I'm a book publishing and media specialist with over 30 years experience copyediting, proofreading, ghostwriting, and marketing successful nonfiction books. My greatest joy is helping an author craft the perfect book for their brand. I am equally skilled at shaping a book from idea to page; doing developmental and/or copyediting or proofreading at any stage; and brainstorming and storyboarding infographics, compelling charts and tables, and/or more whimsical or informative illustrations. I have extensive connections to excellent photographers, illustrators, and graphic designers, and can help you navigate finding and working with the right professional as needed. As a longtime publisher who has spent time on the other side of the desk, as it were, I know what makes a compelling proposal if you wish to catch the eye of a literary agent or trade publisher. For self-publishers, I work with professionals who can help to take your book from manuscript to printed copies. I have helped to develop four New York Times bestsellers with first-time authors, and shaped dozens more highly successful "category killer" nonfiction titles in topics ranging from cookbooks to popular science to style and beauty to outdoor survival.

    I'm not your average storyteller. Of course, I have strong writing skills, feel the rush of spikes in web traffic, and have a mile-long story angles Notes tab on my phone. But I'm also a PR specialist, social community builder, and mountain climber (both figuratively and literally, ask me about when I summited Kilimanjaro). My background dives into every channel of branding. I specialize in strategic communication, media relations, brand positioning, narrative and messaging development, influencer marketing, concepting, and all while executing multiple projects simultaneously. My experience in marketing, social, PR, and journalism allows me to see campaigns from all angles-thinking like a consumer, cross-functional team member, and media-to develop well-rounded messaging and creative storytelling that captivates the right person's attention. Simply put, I understand the nuances of storytelling and what makes people feel seen-and why that translates to better brand awareness. In 2017, a Good Morning America segment I secured for past client VIM & VIGR resulted in over 10,000 pairs of compression sock purchases in one day. With nearly a decade of using strategic thinking to approach and solve problems uniquely, I'm passionate about using my skillset to help brands build genuine connections with consumers.

    In 2016 with my experience in agriculture, creating successful business entities, and skills helping teams to reach their goals, I was asked to consult a group of investors to build and begin the operations of a new Recreational Cannabis farm in Oregon. I was up for the challenge to use all my skills to create something new and progressive. I consulted with their team for a year and we worked diligently as we became one of the top 5 companies producing and manufacturing. We won many awards and added a distribution license and edibles line to the business portfolio. At the end of my contract, it was proposed I stick around and continue leading the team and sweetened the deal by offering me shares of the company and becoming co-owner of what we built. I accepted. With a 2 million dollar investment, we have proudly evaluated at 9 million. I started to take less responsibility as General Manager with a plan to offer my experience as a consultant in the cannabis industry. After assembling a great crew I did just that. I currently offer consulting services to both food service and agricultural companies across the U.S. I am a single male with 2 daughters, 20, and 17 that live at college, I prefer to work a lot, and I enjoy having a purpose. Whether you are looking for help on a small project or for an employee willing to do what it takes to get the work done and with excellence, and believe like me that loyal, hard-working committed team members may not exist, I would like to prove you incorrect. If you require or would like to view a CV/resume I can supply one.

Really, I get exhausted just thinking about it. In December 2013 I joined David Pogue's team at the spiffy new Yahoo Tech site, which launched a month later. In June 2015 I became its editor-in-chief. In February 2016 I was told my services were no longer needed because Yahoo had shifted direction (for the 3,247th time) and was going to fold the Tech magazine back into either Yahoo News or Yahoo Finance. Lovely. Today I am back to the thing I love best: Writing. But I am also open to editing, consulting, analysis, and teaching opportunities. I figure I must have learned something worth knowing in my 327 years in this industry. Also: Intercourse Upwork's service fees. This service is of zero value to me.

    I automate data and processes so my human brain (which has published poems, been to Bread Loaf, and written a novel) can focus on telling your campaign's story with a unique voice no AI can replicate. HUMAN VOICE: Why pay me $0.10/word when GPT works for free? Because you want ROI, and Reddit-trained boilerplate won't get you there. The barrage of AI and other spam content raining down on today's audiences makes great prose style more indispensable than ever: every sentence is a weapon in the war for attention and engagement. To cut through the noise, my writing leads your charge with its command of the rhythms and possibilities of English. I forge and hone your content with an ear for the language sharpened by years in literary writing and publishing. My lifelong educational career has hard-coded a hawk-eyed internal editor into my writing process, so the copy comes out clean, quickly. CAMPAIGN DATA & AUTOMATION When I fold into your content strategy ops, I fully leverage (and can help optimize) your existing tech stack to drive actionable insights from your data, automate processes, and keep teams aligned.
