I provide legal and investigative research support, helping attorneys, businesses, and investors make informed decisions with accurate, actionable information. My work focuses on clarifying complex situations, identifying key individuals, and uncovering critical details others often miss. My recent work has involved extensive property and ownership research, including identifying and locating owners, heirs, and key decision-makers in foreclosure and other time-sensitive situations. With 30+ years of combined paralegal and insurance experience, I bring a strong understanding of legal processes, documentation, and compliance requirements across a range of matters. I am also experienced in preparing and filing motions, pleadings, and other court documents in active legal cases. Services include: • Legal and investigative research • Pre-acquisition property and ownership research • Ownership history and contact identification • Foreclosure and tax-delinquent property research • Legal research and case support • Document drafting: letters, notices, memos, and supporting filings • Compliance policy drafting (ECOA, TILA, FCRA, GLBA, UDAAP, TCPA, FDCPA) I focus on delivering clear, reliable information that can be used to move matters forward—not just collected.

I am a former biomedical researcher with a knack for writing and an eye for detail. My skill sets include writing scientific articles, technical content and web copy; editing manuscripts, technical writing and grant proposals; and designing and troubleshooting experiments. I find projects that allow me to make complex, technical subject matter accessible and compelling to any individual particularly rewarding, and my broad skill set and experience make me an ideal candidate for projects in small businesses, research labs and startups. My professional experience began as an award-winning biology instructor at the college and university levels, teaching entry- through graduate-level courses for over three years. Over the next decade, I performed highly technical heart research, where I discovered a new form of dilated cardiomyopathy and developed and implemented a gene therapy treatment in a mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. I now work exclusively as a science consultant and freelance writer.
