I love working with words.

I have many years of experience writing and editing in journalism and communications positions. I have recently begun a year-long certificate program in copyediting from the University of California San Diego to expand my opportunities in this field.

Editing

I was also a Lifestyle Editor for the Daily World and Northwest Guardian newspapers, meaning I planned, edited and designed that section of the newspaper several times a week.

Most recently, I was on the editing team for the Washington State Department of Transportation, editing press releases for travelers.

Writing

I was a journalist for 10 years, starting in high school and covered sports, entertainment and local news for radio, newspaper and military audiences until 2016.
