I am an American journalist with more than 15 years of experience writing, editing and managing. I am confident my skills make me the ideal candidate to fit almost any outlet's content needs.
As a result of my diverse newsroom experiences, I have become an expert in producing content quickly, proficiently and in strict adherence to AP style. With a background in print, broadcast and online news, I am comfortable operating on deadline and reporting on almost any topic imaginable.
My career has featured many highlights, including the honor of receiving a Texas Press Association award for news writing. I am currently a member of the Online News Association.
In my most recent position as managing editor of one of the nation’s most widely read news sites, I have been fortunate enough to pass these traits on to numerous young reporters. My dedication to integrity and innovation, along with building a talented team of professionals, has led to a 20-fold increase in pageviews over the past several years.
My experience in online publishing includes any basic skills needed to work remotely and without direct supervision, including wide-ranging familiarity with WordPress.

$100K+ Earned | Top Rated Plus | 95%+ Job Success | SEO, Email & Copywriting Specialist
When AI first showed up, I had one thought.
Welp. It is time to pack it up and head out.
I had spent years writing SEO content, blogs, emails, websites, speeches, landing pages, courses, and just about everything else people hire writers to write.
Then suddenly a robot could produce 2,000 words before I finished my coffee.
Seemed mildly problematic.
Then something strange happened.
The invites kept coming.
Clients started reaching out with a whole new category of problem.
“AI made my website feel like SkyNet propaganda.”
“Our blogs all sound the same.”
“This email is technically fine. I also hate it.”
“Can you make this sound human?”
Now THAT I can work with.
Because AI changed writing, but it also exposed something I had believed for years.
Words are easy.
Understanding people is hard.
And here is where my career gets a little weird.
I am also a therapist.
So, naturally, I chose the dark side of psychology.
Copywriting.
I have spent years studying what catches attention, builds trust, creates resistance, keeps people stuck, and finally gets them to move.
Turns out that is pretty useful when writing an email.
It also helps with SEO content, websites, landing pages, sales copy, speeches, and brand messaging.
My strongest lanes are SEO content writing and email copywriting.
SEO CONTENT
I write long-form SEO blogs, SEO articles, pillar pages, content clusters, topical authority content, service pages, website content, keyword-driven articles, and organic search content.
I care about the machinery underneath strong SEO.
Search intent. Long-tail keywords. Keyword strategy. Topical authority. Internal linking. Content gaps. On-page SEO. Organic visibility. Conversion paths.
All the wonderfully nerdy stuff.
But somebody eventually has to read the thing.
My SEO content gives search engines clear context while giving actual humans substance, personality, expertise, and enough momentum to keep going.
EMAIL COPYWRITING
Email is psychology with a deadline.
You have a subject line and a few sentences to earn space inside someone’s already overcrowded brain.
I write promotional emails, nurture sequences, webinar campaigns, launch emails, sales sequences, re-engagement campaigns, educational emails, lead nurture campaigns, and conversion-focused email marketing.
I think about the person before the CTA.
What are they worried about?
What have they already tried?
What are they tired of hearing?
What do they want badly enough to keep reading?
That therapist brain follows me everywhere.
Occupational hazard.
WEBSITE & CONVERSION COPY
I also write homepages, landing pages, service pages, sales pages, About pages, lead-generation copy, brand messaging, website rewrites, and conversion copy.
Give me the founder who explains the company beautifully on Zoom and somehow turns into a bank brochure the second they start typing.
Give me the website with an identity crisis.
I will find the story.
SPEECHES, THOUGHT LEADERSHIP & SPECIALTY CONTENT
I write keynote speeches, executive remarks, webinar scripts, presentations, talking points, ghostwritten thought leadership, educational content, and story-driven speaking material.
My clinical background also gives me deep experience in healthcare, mental health, behavioral health, addiction treatment, therapy, private practice, legal, and professional services content.
I understand professional language.
I also understand how actual people describe what hurts, scares them, confuses them, or keeps them awake at 2:13 a.m.
Those are very different dialects.
Being able to move between them is useful.

Content Strategy
My favorite projects usually have some mess in them.
A complicated idea.
A strange industry.
A crowded market.
A website with an identity crisis.
An SEO strategy that needs an actual voice.
An email campaign people have stopped opening.
A founder with 47 ideas fighting inside one Google Doc.
That is where writing gets interesting.
I research deeply, find the angle everyone else skipped, study the audience, and pay attention to voice, rhythm, psychology, search intent, and what the business actually needs the writing to accomplish.
Then I write.
The internet already has plenty of words.
The good ones still take some work.

🎯 Experienced journalist, accidental radio host and now a secret weapon for founders, solopreneurs and aspiring executives looking to turn their experience and expertise into narrative content that attracts attention to their company, their career and their ideas.
This is about more than increasing the number of followers. It's telling your story, the wisdom and the wins you've earned, in a way that cuts through all the digital clutter and connects with the audience.
I take on everything from rewriting bios to starting a regular newsletter to working on book-length projects.
➜ If you’re looking for organic growth and meaningful results, I’m available to talk.
As a journalist, I covered professional sports for more than 20 years in Seattle. I was one of 50 media members who voted for the NFL's annual MVP award, I hosted a weekly interview show with coach Pete Carroll and once tried to convince Shaquille O'Neal to play along with a bit in which we were long-lost brothers separated by a typographical error. Shaq didn't have time, but he did laugh at the idea.
In addition to my growing freelance business, I continue to work as a writer and podcast host. All custom content, absolutely zero AI with quick turnaround times.
