With over 200 successful freelance projects completed in the past five years on Upwork and a track record of consistently high client satisfaction, I bring both experience and reliability to every job. I’ve spent 25+ years helping clients tell their stories, elevate their brands, and communicate clearly—across industries and platforms.
What I Do Best:
• Book editing (40+ titles and counting!)
• Article & blog writing (including incorporating SEO)
• Web & social media content
• Press releases & white papers
• Training manuals, scripts, and more
I’ve served as the managing editor for trade magazines, a medical journal (my current role), and a community newspaper—so I know how to manage content at every stage, from brainstorm to polished publication.
I also bring graphic design skills to the table when needed, creating eye-catching layouts and visuals that support your message.
Industries I’ve Worked In:
Healthcare, insurance, B2B/B2C business, nonprofits, science, politics, tech, pet care, religion, and more. I'm always learning—and that’s one of my favorite parts of the job!
Clients say I’m:
✓ Reliable and responsive
✓ Detail-oriented but deadline-driven
✓ Collaborative, curious, and easy to work with
On the personal side, I’m a military spouse, proud mom to two grown kids, and pet parent to a senior dog and a handful of foster-fail cats.
Let’s talk about how I can help bring your next project to life!
