About Me
A little about me
Welcome – I am a freelance writer currently based in Tokyo, Japan and San Francisco, USA, and occasionally Australia, Alaska and other locales.
My current focus is on writing magazine or newspaper articles (on contract or spec), press releases, corporate newsletter articles, grant writing, video scripts, blog posts, and ghostwriting.
Shoot me an email and let’s talk about how I can help you with your content needs.
My Background
I was born in the US and am a native English speaker and writer. I graduated from several US Universities. I have lived in Japan for nearly 10 years. I also spent a year solo-sailing the Eastern coast of Australia and lived one summer in Nicaragua administering vaccinations for measles and polio.
My Education
I attended Emory University and the University of Georgia where I graduated with a BS degree in Biology and Environmental Science.
I also graduated from Texas A&M with a Master’s degree in Industrial Engineering.
